Title: Excellent remaster, so-so packaging...
Product review: "Walkin" has just been reissued as a 20-bit remaster by Prestige (along with others from that mid-50s period, i.e. Relaxin'/Workin'). The sound is of course in mono, but absolutely excellent. The material and top-notch performances are ahead of anything in jazz at that time. My only complaint is that at full price ($15) there are NO new liners or photos, just one of those wraparound cardboard holders whose function is dubious... I mailed Prestige the little tear-out card and suggested they look at the Columbia Miles reissues as a model...In the end, it's the music that counts; the 1st two tracks "Walkin'" and "Blue n'Boogie" are alone worth the price of admission.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
