This is excellent, Mike and Felipe. So many interesting topics covered (even hot stampers!). Appreciate Nick's patience during the audiophile segments :) Both he and Abey came across really well and that's a testament to the Jazz Bums. I really hope the movie comes to fruition and I can't wait for Jazz Samba.
Really nice interview with Nick and Abey!! New to jazz music but learning so much from watching your videos I recently bought the Stan Getz One Step had really enjoyed the music and sound!!
Great interview guys 👍 Felipe (as you are quoted on the Impex website): Are there any signs of master tapes degradation on the one step. The reason for me to ask is that this is audible on the AP-version (a few semi-drop outs)?
I wouldn’t say degradation, just tape flaws that were present from the beginning, and did not develop over time. Yes, a few drop outs at some spots. But the touch of warmth, beauty, that this present adds, makes it the one in my opinion. Regardless the isolated tape issues. F
Question for Mike: for a Sinatra newbie (I know Sinatra and Basie at the Sands but otherwise not familiar with much other than his various hit), is the Impex Sing and Dance a good starting point for Sinatra? I do enjoy music from that era.
Love this content! Way to go, Jazz Bums.
