Thanks so much! The Okka set is definitely worth picking up. I read somewhere that he started doing more tenor work because at some point in the 90s he finally got a horn that felt comfortable to him.

Thanks. Is this a straight copy / rip of the LP? Or has some form of the dreaded “noise reduction” been applied? If so, can you tell us what it was?

It's news to me. THANKS.

Hi glmlr and to all concerned/interested the LP was ripped straight!
No filtering at all (never!).
I've only removed some clicks and pops manually!
My rips are always treated as described above - I NEVER do any filtering!!!
I rip at 24bit and burn at 16bit with a slow rate.

If I have enough time I do remove also the more tiny clicks to an extend.
"Zanzou" was in a quite good condition - so only about 25-35 clicks were removed!

I NEVER do any filtering!!!!

Even when the LP/EP is in a totally worn out condition I refer from filtering - EVER!!

Warmest thanks for the clarification, and for your integrity, Onx.

many thanks for this one, missing from my collection of solo EP. Nice to have both saxes on one album.

Thanks for a rare record by a master. Thanks also for your careful transfer work.

Thanks. I agree with the earlier comment that those who enjoy this should seek out the Okka recording which I have long enjoyed.

After all the Evan Parker recordings I have heard, it is still marvelous to hear a new one like Zanzou!

Is there a secret to getting past the first ficher page to the download page. It keeps going round in circles.

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

Which first side do you mean?
Clicking on the link should bring you to the download link directly.
Just tried it and it worked immediately.
Maybe you scroll down a bit?
Otherwise I recommend 'JDownloader'. It's available for free. Add the link into the JDownloader and start the download with this software. This should work without any problem.
