The 3 track tapes were mixed down to two by (my neighbor) Vic Anesini at Battery Studios with lacquers cut by Matthew Lutthans on The Mastering Lab cutting system, records pressed at QRP. The original artwork tastefully "quotes" the iconic Kind of Blue cover owning and enjoying this labor of love sure to become its own kind of classic. If the wrong "Stella..." was used, a future generation creating another reissue could fix it.- Sound 10/10 Michael Fremer
