It may seem a bit extreme, but I think Out To Lunch is one of the great records of the C20th - regardless of genre. It's over 40 years since I first heard it and I still find it astonishing music and playing. I don't need any more copies but I hope the BNC nails it.
Graham,
What's you count so far then.
I think my first copy owned copy is (I think) a 1977 BN vinyl reissue. The 1999 CD is I think a Van Gelder cut (played about twice). The DeAgostini vinyl is supposed to the same Ron McMaster mastering that you have (it does sound pretty good) and as I said,the MM 2x45rpm, that is excellent and I like most, but the convenience of the DeAgostini sometimes wins.Three: MM45, McMaster vinyl and McMaster CD. The first time I heard it was probably a 60s pressing. Although the MM45 is stunning, there is something about the McMaster LP I like - in fact I think there is a bit of clipping in parts which gives the music an edge, and more compression than the MM. Wrong of me I know! The CD was for convenience, rarely played. I'll be passing on the BNC, but I'm sure it will be great.
I’ve sacked Merry Ole Soul off. I mean, really.
Ricky, I assume you will be leaving this off your Xmas list as well if AS Verve want to compete on Vinyl for Christmas.I’ve sacked Merry Ole Soul off. I mean, really.
