Duke Ellington's Spacemen - The Cosmic Scene
what can i say it’s duke!


Another great addition to the Classic Mono Recordings series
It's wonderful to see this often difficult to find album released here at HDTT is such fine sound. This is "small ensemble" Duke Ellington rather than orchestra Ellington, and it shows off some great performers, particularly Britt Woodman on trombone and Clark Terry playing flugelhorn throughout. HDTT does an excellent job transferring this tape, resulting in a very clean, warm (almost lush), and detailed sound in the DXD transfer to which I'm listening. As usual with HDTT's transfers, this has a very low noise floor. It is a great addition to the music library here. Thanks for the great work in both FINDING these recordings and in the transfers you are making.
