About the Recording
Jazz at the Pawnshop likely needs no introduction to any of you. Suffice it to say that it was recorded live before an audience in a club in Sweden in 1976, and it is widely regarded as one of the most natural-sounding jazz recordings of all time. It is a long-standing audiophile reference, and it contains excellent music and performances. Used industry wide as THE reference disc when setting up high end sound systems, the soundstage is superb with performances seeming to lift out from the speakers!
