Global Jazz Trio at
Baker’s Keyboard Lounge – Live In Detroit (CD)
Sound: B-
Music: B-
I had never heard of the Global Jazz Trio and they are not
bad, but their choices of music for their Baker’s Keyboard Lounge – Live In
Detroit (2005) but a track by Norah Jones and the perennial Amazing
Grace cut into the rhythm of what was shaping up to be an interesting
show. Tracks by the band members, Sonny
Rollins and John Coltrane fare better, but the concert overall never reaches
its potential, which you can hear and feel on the CD.
The PCM 16bit/44.1kHz 2.0 Stereo is not as well recorded,
as it should be for a recent live performance, with some roughness, harshness
and other sonic limits throughout. Fans
will tolerate this, but audiophiles will likely not.
