Antonio Carlos Jobim – Getz / Gilberto

What people say about this pressing is true. It is a joy to the ears. Everything breathes delicately, if that makes any sense. Get it while you can.

This is easily one of the best pressings in my collection. Flat as a board, clean, and extremely dynamic. The sound of this is unbelievable, I can't describe it. This is one of the best values I have ever seen

This is my featured vinyl for this week on my blog, A.D.R.E.W. (A Different Record Every Week) link below...

The concept is simple - to share a new record from my vinyl collection every week along with a short review including, my favourite track, a suggested listening environment and further related recommendations. My aim is to get more people listening to albums again, the way they were intended to be played.

This record is waste of money.The sound itself is is outstanding if we talk about mastering job from the original analog master tapes but,it was cut hot..on the edge and that causes slight distortion and some traces of sibilance on vocals.
I do have two turntables with different types of cartridges so no,there is no inner groove distortion or something else.
Tested with Grado Statement Sonata 1 and Ortofon 2m red.I don't understand how they can made such a mistake and of course..this also came slightly warped but with no effect on audio.
I have some other pressings and they are fine more or less so i can compare and there is no mistake.This one is not a keeper.It's a shame.The cover is very nicely done.Top quality but this thing with the loud cut makes me sad and disappointed.

This is my go to album for sitting in my listening room on a day off drinking a freshly pulled cappuccino and wondering if a more beautiful sounding album could possibly exist. It's that good.

I was surprised, my copy was unplayably uneven. Now it's flat, quiet and sounds perfect, flat ironed by the store with professional equipment.

Sounds fantastic,all analog cut from the original master tapes at QRP stated on the hype sticker,I reccomend it,I got it at amazon.com. and it's 38 bucks,and holiday sales gets it to what? 25 or 30 to 35 bucks? And it didn't came with a cataside of it,but oh well,for 38 I can't complain.

Most quiet pressing of earth, my reference vinyl. will buy another one in case i mess this one up, because i cant't live without it !

My top recommendation if you are seeking this album in a new clean version, without changing sides too often. In multiple s with different top gear, it came out top ranking. It even beats the more clinical clean sounding Impex 45. Of course, all raters subjectively rated what they heard in the rooms with the equipment engaged at that time.
In addition, best value for money.

Dead quiet and sounds great. A bit warped, but that doesn't affect the music. At a price of €18, you can't complain.
