What a surprise! Sam Records has undoubtedly become a reference in the world of modern jazz. And this time he has done it again: another great vinyl for audio-phile collectors. Definitely another success for Sam Records. I have already reserved my copy and I wish I could watch the needle fall on that 180 g vinyl and also mono… a show! And at an incredible price! Congratulations friends!

As always, Sam Records is the best.Wonderful mono sound, great remastering, super great packaging, everything is top notch. Fred is doing absolutely fantastic work!
Will –
Every release by Sam Records is outstanding, so of course, one should anticipate this recording with high expectations! This will be my 6th Sam Record to date, so looking forward to spinning this baby when it arrives.

Amazing good recording and presentation on vinyl. A fine job throughout the entire chain. The monaural sound is most preferable for this kind of music and top notch even when picked up with a stereo cartridge. All of my SAM records issues were „blind buys“ and my confidence in Fred‘s ambitious work has always been highly rewarded with wonderful releases. Thank you so much, Fred!
