Hal Galper - Wild Bird An early fusion classic! I have been jonesing for a CD release of this one for a long time. Dig it!!!
Teruo Nakamura & The Rising Sun - Song Of The Birds Another fusion classic! This one from 1977. Featuring Harry Whitaker, Carter Jefferson and Herbie Hancock among many others.....
Queue that up next Bob! I recently decided to pick up some more of the Jaco albums, including the one above. They are all pretty fantastic! I also snagged a new copy of the 4CD live set for like $12.
Is it the Speakers Corner version? I had both the japanese EXPR and the 180g "Jazz the Best" pressings and both had slight noise issues on the left channel. I wonder if this issue is present on all reissues (or even the original)?

Absolutely. Listened to "Kind of Blue" yesterday and the mastering is simply outstanding. Too bad MFSL don't do as much jazz as Analogue Productions.
