Description:

(SACD-HYBRID) It was certainly a magical night at the Pawnshop in March, 1976 when a young lady of 81 completely captured and entranced the audience with her stage presence and vibrant personality. Her communication with the musicians and audience combined to elevate her artistry beyond the aural level to include that indefinable ingredient... atmosphere. This atmosphere was retrieved from the Opus 3 vaults from 31 years ago and like a good wine has aged well as lovers of jazz from the twenties will appreciate. Eva Taylor is a direct link with the great era of jazz when she was singing with the Clarence Williams Blue Five and also with Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet who were coming to their peak as influential jazz geniuses in the mid twenties. SACD-Hybrid plays on regular CD players.

Recording Equipment: Microphones: Neumann U-87, Neumann KMS-85, Neumann KM-84 and Shure SM-76 Analogue Tape Recorder: Sony TC-756 (Modified) Tape: Ampex 9472 (Grand Master) Digital Mastering Transfer: Genex 8500 and converters from EMM Labs. Inc. A few words about the recording: The Pawnshop (Stampen) in Stockholm is a relatively small Jazz/Blues club in Stockholm and when filled to capacity as it was for Eva Taylor's wonderful performance the natural reverberation is virtually non-existent. Because the main artist is a vocalist a PA system is required in order that the performer can "reach" the audience. Unfortunately this produces an undesirable short delayed echo through leakage into the microphones for the horns etc. which is impossible to avoid in a live recording. The slight "puff" sounds which may be noticed on Eva's vocals are the results of this but are the price you pay for the pleasure of a live performance. MULTI-CHANNEL INFORMATION - 4.1: All frequencies below 60 Hz (24dB/octave) from the front channels is allocated to the LFE and all above to the left and right front channels. As an advice to owners of an active sub-woofer, please set the crossover adjustment well above 60 Hz so as not to affect the matching with the front channels.
