I was looking on the Juno Records website when this record caught my eye -
https://www.juno.co.uk/products/louis-hayes-at-onkel-pos-carnegie-hall/715475-01/
Take a look at the running times on sides 2,3 and four :eek: Isn't the optimum time for an LP side around 18 minutes? The dynamics on this record are going to be seriously compromised.
I really think that the expertise in the manufacture of records has almost vanished. I bought the reissue of 'Glass Bead Games' by the Clifford Jordan Quintet recently and it sounds as if there is an annoying bass boost. The balance is artificial and fatiguing. Putting on anything original from the 60's and 70's is a relief and shows up the boosted sonics of modern reissues.
Should do better:(
