Description
ART BLAKEY AND THE JAZZ MESSENGERS "MOANIN'"LP - Music Matters 33RPM LTD EDITION
Record - NM. Plays perfectly.
Cover - NM. Try to ignore my hand reflections on the cover. It's a deep rich black. Basically a mirror and tough to photograph.
Gatefold - NM
The mastering of the Music Matters Jazz (MMJ) edition of Art Blakey’s Moanin’ is widely regarded by audiophiles as the absolute gold standard for how this historic 1958 session should sound. 1. Pure AAA All-Analog Chain
- True Master Tapes: The record was mastered 100% AAA all-analog, cut directly from Rudy Van Gelder's original 1958 two-track master tapes. No digital steps, delays, or previews were used in the signal path.
- The Engineers: The lacquers were cut by mastering legend Kevin Gray at his custom-built Cohearant Audio studio in California. For the 33 RPM series rollout, the label also collaborated with Blue Note expert Joe Harley to guide the acoustic balance.
