itsgoodtobefree Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 "There is no loss of quality" I mean surely there has to be some quality lost? They should have done a 4LP version, but didn't to keep the cost down. Understandable, but disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcX Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Idk, I'll take their word on this one. I mean, we really just don't know til our needle reaches the center-most region of our discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domiendr Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Got this today. Very nice package. Sounds pretty good as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Got this today. Very nice package. Sounds pretty good as well! Do the extra-long sides make it sound compressed or anything? Very curious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domiendr Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 No the sound is pretty open and dynamic. I'll compare to my digital source tonight and report back to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicondevil Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Damn! Where did you get yours from? Didn't know these were already shipping! Maybe because Europe? Finally put in my order at Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domiendr Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I work at a record store and thought I would get this in oct. so I was surprised it arrived so early. I compared it to my digital source and it sounds more dynamic and open to my ears. I would say you are pretty safe to order this the sound is not at all compressed. Not that it's the best sounding record ever but as some people stated with the length of the record it could have been pretty bad but they did a stellar job on this one.

timsimmons Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 With the impact this record is having, I can see this thing getting several different remaster/MSFL/whatever reissues over the years like other massive jazz albums.

I swear I read that this morning but just went thru my old history and can't find any of them! I hope I wasn't dreaming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domiendr Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 What was your store's price if you don't mind me asking? Ah it was 29,99 for customers. Edit: Don't know if this has been mentioned but the card with the bearded guy stated there would be a whole story being printed as Kamasi has written this album because of a dream and they are writing it out and that part is an excerpt of the story.

_stretts Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Ok some word from Steve Hoffman forums Ok so it sounds fine. Nice pressing, no noise. The dynamics are great which is surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Kamasi is doing a live Facebook Q and A today (11am Pacific, 2pm Eastern) to celebrate the vinyl release, in case anyone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
