Just a quick opinion: I *really* like the old school/soul jazz
reverb-less, NOT close-miked and NOT in the front of the mix drums
on "West Coast Boogaloo". One thing that I really like about that album
as a whole, in addition to the playing and the compositions, is the
production - which is not the super clean/crisp to an excess that I often
hear on new jazz albums. I want more of the Blue Note direct to a two-track
technique that they used in the 50s and 60s.
