Reviews
The music is fantastic, let’s get that out of the way. The pressing itself is clean and surprisingly not bad for such a thin disc compilation. Nice gatefold cover with extensive liner notes. Docking it one star because the low end is nearly non existant, rendering these recordings slightly anemic.

Edited 2 years agoFour stars for the music. First disc is better. Second disc, mostly good, but goes a little Preservation Hall on Cocktails For Two, which may or may not be your thing. Pressing is good.
