The Jazztet and John Lewis


Original 1961 Argo pressing.


Coleman Hawkins - Wrapped Tight


Original 1965 Impulse pressing.


Vince Guaraldi Trio - Jazz Impressions of Black Orpheus


Original 1962 Fantasy pressing.


Shelly Manne & His Friends - Li'l Abner


I absolutely love this record.  It's a great performance and the sound quality is to die for.  It
might even be the best sounding recording in my music library.  The original pressing I have has
a couple of light pops leading into the first 15 seconds or so of the first track and the rest of
the album is perfect.  Last week I had an opportunity to buy another copy, also an original 1957
pressing....that was still sealed.  The price was very fair so I bought it, knowing that there was
a very real possibility that the record would be warped.  Fortunately for me it was just fine, and
it is a very perfect sample.  If you like jazz I highly recommend this album.

Oh man, I love the Duke. He was so lyrical. (he was a far better piano player than most people give him credit for too) I'll bet that disk is a lot of fun.

So what does this "Columbia 6 Eye" (or 3 Eye) thing mean?

regards

That's a reference to the label that Columbia Records used for their LP pressings over the years.  Here's a good guide to Columbia Record labels...

I recommend that you have your popup blocker enabled when you visit the above site.  It is a good reference but it has some popup ads on it that are annoying.

Toni, just finished listening to the adagio and allegretto of Shostakovich 8 (Previn).  I must be lucky, I've had it since not long after it was released and the album surface remains very quiet.  So beautiful, you know.  Made me wanna say hi.
