Label: Jasmine JASM 2015
Recorded: July 17 1956
Lineage: LP>FLAC

Preparation:
This Jasmine LP issue JASM 2015 was wet washed with denatured water
plus a small quantity of detergent and some isopropol alcohol then
rinsed and spun dry on a special motor.
Ripping:
Played on an Ariston transcription deck with a Shure V15 cartridge
through a Technics phono amplifier. The line output of the amplifier
was coupled to an EDIROL R09 portable digital recorder set to wave
format at 24bit resolution. Separate recordings for each side of the LP.
Editing:
The RaW wave files at 24bits were first filtered to remove any sub-
audible modulation and rumble. The lead-in of each side was carefully
cleaned of any abnormal glitches, leaving the basic LP surface noise.
These sections of surface noise were then captured as noise prints to
be used in the general noise reduction of each side. Using Adobe audition
to do the noise cancellation. These de-noised wave files were then input
to sound Forge and played to aurally detect clicks & pops, these were
corrected by hand drawing the waveform to match adjacent sections. This
method is time comsuming but if done carefully it leaves no thumps as
so often occur with auto-declick methods.
Final level mastering, intertrack fade in-out's added and wave file split
into side and track numbers. At this point the 24 bit master tracks were
re-sampled to 16 bit for CD compatibility and encoded with FLAC encoder
for distribution.
Comments:
Most of these track titles were unknown when the LP was ripped, so the
printed track list was used as a guide, however, listening and comparing
with the copious notes on the LP sleeve, revealed that the recording order
on the LP was not as written up. In my opinion track 4 is NOT "Nicole" but
the track written as a nod to the "Jazz Messengers",  "Nicole" follows on
side 2. I of course stand to be corrected on this, by anyone with a more
intimate knowledge of the session. 
Quality Notes:
These tracks are as reproduced from the LP, the levels and frequency response
of the individial tracks has not been altered in any way, in my opinion
these tracks are a bit "Bass heavy" and for my own listening I tend to
use a gentle high pass filter which brightens them to suit my ears and
listening equipment. You may wish to do the same.
