I've recently heard most of Buddy's overdubbed recordings for the
first time and was astonded at the very poor quality of some of them,
particularly from albums like "Giant". Surely with todays technology
there must be clean versions of these overdubbed tracks around? The
ones I heard sounded like they came from bad acetates. Have they ever
have access to the master tapes? One wonders why they bothered if this
was the best quality they could use.
If anyone knows what the best sources are for the overdubbed tracks
i'd really appreciate it.
