Sonny Rollins – Saxophone Colossus

Étrange sortie CD en . À noter la durée plus courte des morceaux, notamment Blue Seven.

Dead quiet, really happy to find this today. I recently bought the blue Newbury comics pressing and there’s a nasty skip at the end of the A side. This might get ed over bc we’re looking for that classic/original album cover? Regardless, it’s dynamite.

I was lucky to find a NM copy for cheap. The labels say “Stereo”, but this is pressing is Mono and it sounds absolutely fantastic. Quiet vinyl from the 80s. Very holographic sounding with great low end. Highly recommended.

Looking for a copy if anyone has one for sale let me know

Just like all the "De Agostini" reissues I have, a very nice, silent and clear sounding record. Sure, I can't make any comparison with any early one.

This pressing sounds absolutely sublime. Worth tracking down. Also not as expensive as an OG pressing.

Wow... playing this now and it sounds fantastic. Flat and no surface noise. Pretty sure it's mono so listening with the mono switch activated. Recommended.

The label is misprinted but still, sounds pretty nice. JVC did a lot of audiophile releases (MoFi), so that’s why this sounds lovely.

I got this at a FYE for 10 dollars sealed and I couldn’t believe how good it sounds. It maybe one of the best reissues I own. It’s right up there with my Blue Note Classics and Tone Poets.
