|
Silver Member Username: SoundgameRichmond Hill Toronto ..., Ontario Canada Post Number: 444 Registered: Jun-08 | Hey Art, Chris Botti once again. You played that yesterday. He plays wonderfully, doesn't he. Don't you find the sound quality of his CD's very good? Cheers, George |
|
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 8506 Registered: Feb-05 | I just picked up the CD yesterday George. It does have very good sound. I'm not a big Botti fan as I really, really don't like smooth jazz. He is a local boy and went to high school where I lived for over 20 yrs and where I still work (Corvallis, Oregon) and so he has a pretty good following here. I can't much fault his playing as it is very good. I'll have to look through his catalog and see if I can find some of his least smooth jazz sounding records...any suggestions would be welcome. |
|
Silver Member Username: SoundgameRichmond Hill Toronto ..., Ontario Canada Post Number: 445 Registered: Jun-08 | Art, I have the latest one, Italia and the one he release before December, which is: To Love Again. They are both smooth Jazz but I just love the way his trumpet sounds on those trakcs. Hey Art, I've love very quick sounding jazz with lots of drum and cymbal play; however, I'm looking for something that is reference quality, exceptional recording in CD format (could be some type of high bit master). Do you have any suggestions?? |
|
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 8507 Registered: Feb-05 | George why don't you try Manu Katche - Neighbourhood. Katche is a drummer and has a great command of his instrument. As usual with ECM it's a great recording. There are a bunch of other great ECM recordings that would fit the bill for ya, but I would start with that one. A Winter's Solstice - Windham Hill Artsists Vinyl. |
|
Silver Member Username: SoundgameRichmond Hill Toronto ..., Ontario Canada Post Number: 446 Registered: Jun-08 | Will look into that Art. Thanks for the suggestion. |
