Lately, I've been getting the feeling that even TowerRecords is taking some questionable steps with their high-res remastering series for SACD. On one hand, I'm skeptical of ...
Jaarvi's work with the NHK has been outstanding and the Sony recordings some of the best sounding SACD ever released. I had assumed that their partnership had ended so this ...

A release in the first 13 releases of the Blue Note SA-CD Hybrid Selection series of an intended 20 titles and slated to be released between 25 September 2024 and 18 December 2024. It is a Tower Records Japan exclusive series to commemorate the 85th anniversary of the founding of Blue Note Records. The first 13 releases in this series are new 2024 remasters based on DSD transfers ordered in 2017. CD layers are all also newly converted to PCM from the DSD masters.
This one released September 2024.
Exactly who has done the 2024 remastering's from the (probably Robert Vosgein's) 2017 US master tape to DSD transfers is not known at this point.
Sounds excellent. Nicely balanced, separated and detailed. Not too bright sounding either. Total time given is 37:40. I don't know how this compares with the Japanese single layer 2017 SACD.
Interestingly the Phonographic Copyright/Copyright given here is 1958 for both, whilst for the 2017 SACD it has 1985 for the Phonographic Copyright and 1958 for Copyright.
If you are looking for this on SACD it is unlikely you will be disappointed with this SACD version.
