Hot Stamper Pressings of the Music of Miles Davis Available Now
This review is for a pressing we put up around 2010.
Up to that time we had never played a clean, early pressing, and when we finally were able to put some in our shootout, one of them had sound that was out of this world.
In the commentary below we discuss what we think the early pressings probably sound like. Now, having heard how good the best of them can sound, we admit we clearly needed to do more research and development.
The record pictured above can have superb sound, much better than any modern Heavy Vinyl reissue you care to name.
However, the right properly-cleaned early pressings have the potential to take the sound of this music to the next level, a level we had no idea could exist until that right record came our way.
