I started to enjoy Cash in the late '60’s and early '70’s when I was starting to listen to a wide range of music genres. For some reason I didn’t like Dylan then either. I hadn’t listened to Cash much in the 50 years since but started to enjoy him again lately.
Hittin’ this set. . . the transfers are amazing, makes other issues of this material sound “dull” if not muffled.
Nat King Cole “Hittin’ the Ramp: The Early Years (1936-1943)”
Followed by Miles Davis "Miles in Berlin’ Sony LP Facsimile 20 bit cd. This recording has rightfully been panned somewhat–the horns are often under-recorded, especially in ensemble, but I LOVE the way that Herbie, Ron and Tony are recorded here, the energy in these performances really comes through, and all are in fine form for Wayne’s earliest recording with the group.
And because I haven’t put it back in the shelves yet, I am re-spinning this one, Miles Davis “Vol.1” Blue Note Japan “24 Bit by RVG” lp facsimile cd. Over time I’ve learned to like these early sessions as a leader more and more, and the sound on these RVG transfers is very vivid and dynamic.
Another great Eno record - The Shutov Assembly:
Sort of an evolution from the Music For Airports albums.
Younglings note: This guy is where Ambient came from ; )
Correction: It was Not where it came from.
No he isn’t. Early-ish innovator, but not the source.
It would be satisfying to have someone to blame.
Yes - it was pointed out by others. My bad. When Music for Airports came out, that was my first exposure to the genre, and that seemed like a New Thing at the time.
