    Great album and VERY impressive soundstage indeed.
    No wonder when Dutch Master Frans De Rond is the engineer;
    We love when we are able to record musicians playing together without headphones. When not 'separated' by headphones musicians interact much more as they would do in a concert situation,
    creating their own musical balance which makes the need for compression to control levels unnecessary and since everybody is in the same room, the boxed sound which is so common in many modern recordings is absent. Instead the beautiful sound of studio 2 helps 'glue' the sound of the recording. When creating the sound stage, we spent a great amount of time getting the balance of the little orchestra as optimal as possible using the ambient microphone stereo pair placed in the 'sweet spot' in studio 2, before adding the spot microphones.We have created a sound field that is intimate but also with enough depth to have a visual representation of the instruments.
    The idea is to let the melodic part of each instrument stand out yet never overshadow the whole. The benefit of this approach is that you can visualize the ensemble in front of you; trombones and French horn left, voice in the middle with the piano placed slightly further to the back and the strings to the right.
    This is NOT the commercial radio friendly approach, with the instruments piled on top of each other straight down the middle.
    In a sense we are old fashioned, maybe we listened to too many old jazz recordings, but on the other hand as the great Louis Armstrong said; "The memory of things gone is important to a jazz musician. Things like old folks singing in the moonlight in the backyard on a hot night or something said long ago".

    Its pretty cool that the sons are following their dads. The Allman Betts Band includes Devon Allman & Duane Betts on guitars and vocals, Berry Oakley Jr. on bass. If you get a chance to see them live, they can rock like their dads but have their own sound as to not mimic their parents. .

    I have been an Allman Bros fan since I was 5. My older brothers always had some on. My mother used to get crazy with the solo in Elizabeth Reed....Can't he play any other notes? she would holler up the steps.

    Anyway, these guys are terrific and I have been keeping my eyes open for a local show but obviously not happening now.


    I like what Dweezle did for Frank too.

    Re: What are you listening to tonight ?

    This concert was held at Massey Hall in Toronto, Canada on May 15, 1953, and was recorded by bassist Charles Mingus, who overdubbed some additional bass parts and issued it on his own Debut label as the Quintet's Jazz at Massey Hall.

    Charlie Parker (listed on the original album sleeve as "Charlie Chan") performed on a plastic alto Charlie Parker’s Plastic Sax | American Jazz Museum


    pianist Bud Powell was stone drunk from the opening bell, and

    Dizzy Gillespie kept popping offstage to check on the status of the first Rocky Marciano-Jersey Joe Walcott heavyweight championship bout. Fight----- Rocky Marciano vs Jersey Joe Walcot II 15.5.1953 - World Heavyweight Championship - YouTube

    Subsequent editions of this evening were released as a double-live album (featuring Bud Powell's magnificent piano trio set with Mingus and Roach), dubbed The Greatest Jazz Concert Ever.

    The hyperbole is well-deserved, because at the time of this concert, each musician on Jazz at Massey Hall was considered to be the principle instrumental innovator within the bebop movement.

    All of these musicians were influenced by Charlie Parker, and their collective rapport is magical. As a result, their fervent solos on the uptempo tunes ("Salt Peanuts" and "Wee") seem to flow like one uninterrupted idea.

    "All the Things You Are" redefines Jerome Kern's classic ballad, with frequent echoes of "Grand Canyon Suite" from Bird and Diz, and a ruminative solo by Powell. And on Gillespie's classic "Night in Tunisia," the incomparable swagger of Bird's opening break is matched by the keening emotional intensity of Gillespie's daredevil flight. A legendary set, no matter how or when or where it's issued.
