Product Description
The Syd Lawrence Orchestra – Big Band Spectacular
The UK’s leading big band, The Syd Lawrence Orchestra, were chosen by producer Mike Valentine
for his exploration into the sound differences between direct cut vinyl
and a multi-track analogue tape recording and mix done of exactly the same event.
The album had to be recorded live so he had to choose a selection of music which would be of the perfect length.
Valentine chose a recording studio which not only had a superb sounding space,
but also an engineer versed in the black art of cutting live vinyl.
Ultimately, he chose Air Studios with engineers Jake Jackson and John Webber.
The Syd Lawrence Orchestra led by Chris Dean perform music consisting of eight pieces from the big band era,
the creations of Glen Miller, Artie Shaw, and Benny Goodman played live at Air Studios.
This 1/4″ Master Tape Copy was created from the 30IPS 1/2″ Running Masters at Air Studios.
