Massive Recommendation - Ron Carter

Posted by: GraemeH on 29 May 2016

'Ron Carter Presents Dado Moroni' (1987/88) Import

This is rarely available but I notice a few on Amazon. I can unequivocally recommend this as a superb, dynamic and musically rewarding recording...A gem in my collection.

It's well worth taking a risk on for a few quid - Trust me I'm an audiophile!

I think you will enjoy it - I have a WAV file ripped from a CD copy and the dynamic swings and truthful timbres are some of the best I've heard. The music is superb too.

G the CD arrived from Japan via the Amazonian River all for a few pounds. Great stuff Bass, Piano and Drums. As you say the music is amazing which makes me wonder why can't all records be produced/engineered with such clarity and dynamics - a nice one for the collection thanks again for the recommendation. Ah just checked the sleeve and the Engineer is Rudy Van Gelder recorded at Van Gelder Studios - that explains everything.
