United StatesFrom my near-field sitting position the digital download in DSF128 played through Amarra Luxe puts Desmond et al in my library. You know it’s Desmond because his musicality and technique are if not unique so enjoyable listening to and this production is happily demonstrably clear, alive, three dimensional and happily joined by artists of equal talent in Gene Wright, Connie Kay, Jim Hall and Gene Gerico. Enjoyment of music is always the ultimate criteria, happily I am Glad To Be Unhappy. Highly recommended
United StatesSound is warm and sweet. The saxophone poet at his best. Excellent transfer.
