The 10 Best All Analog Jazz Records of March 2020 - In Print 

Hi Mike, Thanks to add the Nathan Davis into your 10 Best Jazz Records selection of March 2020. I'm really proud to have made this record in memory of my lost friend Nathan...

love these videos. for someone who just starts the collection, it saves me so much time researching what's available

I’m so happy to have discovered your videos! I’m 76 living on Social Security and my Clearaudio turntable was stolen when I was in the hospital but once I get another turntable I want to buy at least one album a month from your store. More if possible! Your reviews are the best I’ve found.

Just discovered your channel and store. Thanks Mike, your knowledge and delivery are much appreciated.

This is only the second video of yours I’ve watched (just discovered you this weekend), and I’ve already ordered three albums from your shop. You will be partially to blame when my wife leaves me ;)

I just bought the Nathan Davis record from your website. Keep up the great work. I'm learning a ton from your videos!

The Yes Fragile One Step is amazing too! Oh by the way I just placed my first order with you about 10 min ago. Cool videos!

Interesting choices. I love ETC by Shorter. Side 2 is Mesmerizing.

Mike great job thanks for the heads up on Nora I had forgot to get it the first time around. I will check out your site.

Perfect. Thank you!

An astute list. Hard to argue against. Own all of these. The (label & music variation) makes it a solid list.

Great video. Loved all the albums you showed, and the two or three I don't own I certainly am interested in checking out. Also, big fan of your Meat Puppets t-shirt. "Up On The Sun" has been a favorite album of mine since my college radio days.

I'd never heard of Nathan Davis before. I'm listening to Makatuku right now, sorry had to pause you. Great record, newly on my want list!

Great list! Thank you

very cool records - and a very cool t-shirt!

"Oblique" Bobby Hutcheson. Tone poet series...what an introduction.

One of the few silver linings in this terrible pandemic we're experiencing is that you have tons of time. It's a win situation for us who enjoy your vids. Prior you were too busy to put these out which is understandable. So thank you for putting out more content for us. Best stuff online as far as I'm concerned. cheers.

Hello Mike, thank you for the awesome video! And i’ve been watching your RU-vid channel over a years! How is the TBM “Midnight Sugar” you feel?

Fantastic canal...

@The 'In' Groove Yes thats what made me think it obvious too, but technically speaking, it could be read as "Super-cut, Analogue disk". Meaning its just a super cut of sorts and that the disc is analog, which all records are even if from digital. Sort of like when they say "sourced from master tape", which does not mean its cut from the tape necessarily. I investigated the possibility of it being a tape copy as well, measuring the DB range of my original pressings vs these new, but they both came out identical, meaning that either the tape really was shipped, or just a digital transfer of the tapes was used. Because as far as I know, tape generations always lose a little bit of dynamics each time and can easily detect it on other reissues not using original masters. Another point is that there were actually 2 boxes, one in 2008 by another company, but cut at ATM by KG. So for them to ship the master tape over 2 times seems yet more unlikely, but still possible I suppose. Personally if that were the case I would advertise it like crazy with hype stickers and booklet data like with other AAA pressings. But again, its still possible that it is AAA.

Excellent video.. great jazz from great jazz legends.. could you do a video for top 10 blues albums e.g. Doug MacLeod 45 rpm reference mastercuts thanks

Friday Night Lights is a movie! "Friday Night in San Francisco" is an essential album. Thats a bit like calling The Wall, The Window! Otherwise, great video.

After this video I went out looking for those vinyl and the prices were too much for me. I bought normal versions. I like the music. It's enough for me. If I end up loving one maybe I'll hunt the better versions but I doubt it. Thanks for sharing.

Nice vinyl collection I want to get in to jazz music

Nice vinyl collection I like jazz music

Thank you 🎵

Cool shirt of a cool band.

Boy do I wish you could do this same thing digital discs in the jazz arena.

musr be a a record number saying "unbelievable" and "fantastic" in a video, but these records are, well fantastic.

Great video. Pleased to say that I have 4 of those fantastic releases.

Masabumi Kikuchi Hairpin Circus and Terumasa Hino May Dance are both Great Japanese releases!

Great video. Just getting into Jazz so it’s good to have a few pointers. Just one question about the Marvin Gaye One Step that you mentioned. With the album being on 45’s and some of the track transitions being seamless, is the flow of the album hindered by the amount of “side changing”? I just wondered if you found this as a valid criticism or does the sound quality push this aside this as a minor inconvenience? BTW, I come from the POV of never hearing a One Step and having only one MoFi pressing (Curtis Mayfield).

So I recently placed a couple orders on the "In Groove" website. I actually purchased the 45 RPM Analog Productions issue of Time Out featured in this video, among other Jazz titles (all amazing). I feel it's really important to support small businesses during this difficult time we find ourselves in. Mike, if you see this, thank you so much for the wonderful quality records, and the care you took in packaging and shipping. The records arrived in perfect shape and are really helping me get through this quarantine. If you're hesitating on your "In-Groove" shopping cart, pull the trigger!

Superbe coffret👍 monk records

thx,,for sharing

Can you tell us the Tone Poets or 80th Anniversary Bluenotes that you don’t care for as much due to sound quality of the original recordings.

UP ON THE SUN !!! AWESOME ALBUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UGH! I keep watching these great videos and then I when I go to order what I want it’s out of stock. Must have Patience...

Mike, what’s the box set over your right shoulder...the one with the burgundy and yellow colored spine? Thanks!

I bought Donald Byrd in Paris vol 1 & 2 from Sam records, original? forget it, rare as Dodo droppings and re-mortgage your house to buy them

Fantastic and unbelievable Know any other adjectives?

I see several of these mofi releases also have SACD issues. How would you say SACD compares to the AAA vinyls? If played through a good system with proper equipment is the difference that noticeable? Or is it really down to a preference to the sound?

The 45rpm Friday Night in San Fran is getting hard to find for less than almost double the list now. Is the 33rpm by IMPEX close enough as that can be found for $35?

Yes, Wayne Shorter's "Electra" is a great album. 🤣

I like the shirt

I stayed to watch b/c of the Meat Puppets T-shirt...good jazz pics (Nora jones not so much). subscribed!

How does the MoFi Monk’s Dream one step compare to the Impex release?

How are the transfers being done for "new" vinyl? I've read they're using digital remasters to create new LPs because the original analog masters have degraded too much. Thanks.

Wayne Shorter's 'Electra'...???

The first two albums on your list are sold out. Any options

I have the Impex 2x45rpm version TBM 15-45. I can read on the net that Kevin G had remastered this and Tohru K the 2 others in tge box. But on my copy it says that Tohru K had mastered this at JVC mastering center. Anyone knows why this is.....or why my copy is not mastered by Kevin Gray

What's the reason that these 33 1/3 LPs are at 45rpm? What are the pros and cons of picking up a 45 rpm LP?

Do you ship to the uk?

Which titles from tone poet doesn’t sound as good?

Isn't it kind of weird to have kind of blue on a 45? Does it not bust up the continuity? Why don't they put these out on 33 as well for those of us who are set in our ways?

I live in Australia. I WANT TO VISIT YOUR STORE . I'M GONNA NEED A MILLION DOLLARS LOL

hello do you ship in France from your store ? which carrier ? could not find the information ? thanks daniel

I’m trying to learn more about vinyl and I’m getting an education from your videos. What do you mean by “analog?

Are all the Analogue Productions 45 RPM Records all-analog?

What a coincidence, I just got the Three Blind Mice 45 Box Set actually. But truth be told I dont actually think these were AAA cuts. Comparing with my originals was fun, keeping both in the end. The only nitpick I have with the Impex reissue is that Kevin cut the drums a little too hot on certain tracks. But considering the difficulty of getting tapes shipped over seas, and the fact that there is no advertisement for it being AAA, leads me to believe its digitally sourced from the masters. I asked Kevin myself, he doesnt recall and even if he did he couldnt disclose the source used.

Does the “Art Blakey - Indestructible” run 45 RPM?

Well this aged well...

Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Out - Analog Productions LP is sold out :-(

Have all the Music Matters Blue Note 45s - can never catch up to them

Correction: Neither of the mofi records are analog

The "i" in "Isao" is pronounced like the letter "e", and "sow" like the pig.

You say don't pay inflated prices for Kind of Blue, but you're selling a copy on eBay for $160.

how do you leave out Chuck Mangione!!??

LOL, The last all analog KOB was pressed by Classic records. What are MOFI using? ha

Hmmmm. Was the album in 2002 even recorded in analog? Buying records now days is in a way become a science.

$55 for records now ? Geezus.

Is this a commercial? 😂

Try demo Peter Brötzmann's Machine Gun in your store.

Ive had such hit & miss luck with the quality of Mobile Fidelity (warped records being most common) - I wish someone else would get rights to Kind of Blue

the most music is on you tube, why spend such a lot of money ?

Love this, but anyone paying $55 for some of these titles is nutz

jazz crap is vile ,like hip hop or rap crap, pure soul 60s 70s the best ever.

I have no understanding how anyone can listen to jazz music and not wanna kill themself. I have tried several times to listen to different jazz records, but I just can’t stand it! Its really really awful and terrible! Saxophone , trumpets etc are the worse sounding instruments out there!
