Blue Note BST 84245 (Stereo) 1967

I love the sound stage on this album, very well engineered.
Puts you front row center in front of Bobby Timmons on piano.
Quintet is:
Lee Morgan – Trumpet
Wayne Shorter – Tenor Sax
Bobby Timmons – Piano
Jymie Merritt – Bass
Art Blakey – Drums
Super enjoyable listening through the WOPL’d 700b Time Machine !

Another remix… hooray…
How many reiterations will there be?
(But I like the cover art better…)

My 2016 release was mastered by Guthrie/Plante/Grundman- how does yours compare to mine?

A Remix and Remaster are not the same...
This is the first time this album has been remixed.

I'll need to really listen to it in an undistracted way, multiple times before I comment in any comprehensive way.
But the biggest thing I noticed straight away was the keyboard and sound effect details really coming forward and in some respects, moving around in different ways. It sounds different in a remixed way for sure.

Yes- granted remaster and remix are different- sometimes wildly different. Jethro Tull’s “A Passion Play” remaster had a lot of surprises for me, some things I expected from repeated listening went into different directions, and some things were added.

I’m just tired of buying another version of something I know so well, especially given the price of vinyl LPs.

Curious to hear your final assessment…
