modern audiences! NativeDSD has created a special Stereo DSD 512 edition of the
album for our listeners – only available at NativeDSD.Com
Producer Bill Borden says “Dick recorded all the material we are using in
three consecutive sessions. We did not have to do any splicing, mixing, or
‘fiddling’ with the takes chosen, an experience new to me since the
advent of tape, and a highly pleasing one to Dick. It would be superfluous to
comment on the various improvised performances, as they speak for themselves.
However, it should be pointed out that these are all titles he has not
previously recorded, for each of which he feels a personal affinity, and which
have been among his most requested numbers.”
