Hot Stamper Pressings of Jazz Recordings Featuring the Saxophone
UPDATED 2026
My guess is this is still a fairly good Classic Records jazz album. Years ago we wrote the following:
This is actually one of the best Classic Jazz albums they released back in the 90s. Both the music and sound are excellent. Jacquet is one of the creators of the big soulful tenor sax sound. I don’t know of anyone who does it better.
Not having played their pressing since it came out in 1997, we can’t be sure that we would still feel the same way. This is probably a good record if you can get one for the 25 bucks we used to charge, and according to what I see for sale on Discogs, you probably can.
The originals are very hard to come by in audiophile playing condition.
