MILES DAVIS Kind Of Blue (1995 US reissue on stereo 9-track double LP pressed on 200gram Vinyl - an authentic remastering which corrects a mechanical problem that occurred during the recording process. Sony engineers determined the tape machine used to produce Side 1 of the original record was running 1¼ percent too slow. When the tape was played back at 15 inches-per-second for the transfer to the production master, the pitch was too fast! Sides 1 & 2 present the album at its original speed and Side 3 with the first 3 songs at the correct speed for the first time ever on LP. As a bonus, Side 4 presents an alternate take of 'Flamenco Sketches' transfered at 45rpm for increased fidelity. Heavyweight gatefold sleeve. The sleeve shows minimal shelfwear with a mild crease to the top left hand corner whilst the vinyl looks barely played. A fantastic addition to this legendary Jazz masterpiece CS8163)
