Typical, excellent Blue Note Plastylite pressing. Superb sounding. I have the stereo version, as well, but like having Byrd playing between the speakers in the mono version instead of only from the left speaker. -

Somebody could explain why this record is considered Unofficial please? -
Donald Byrd’s Byrd in Flight is a killer album, and this pressing does it justice. The sound is smooth and rich, with Byrd’s trumpet cutting through perfectly. The vinyl is flat, quiet, and the whole package is — from the sleeve to the artwork. Definitely a record that’s going to be on high rotation at my place. Highly recommend! -

The disc of this version weighs a mere 105 grams – not unusual for albums released in the latter half of the '70s, when oil prices had sky-rocketed and impacted the cost of pressing vinyl. As a result the sound isn't as dynamic as you would get from either a 1960's/early 70s pressing or a more recent reissue on heavy weight vinyl. -
Even though it says it is re-channeled for stereo on the back cover, it sounds great, true stereo sound. I don’t think this one is actually re-channeled, because those tend to sound like sh*t. -
Edited 9 months agoSort of two sessions intermingled, each with a slightly diffferent sound, to be sure, and both well recorded. Info says single date but who knows. Nice transfers. -

This is a masterpiece. They don't make albums like this anymore. I bought it on CD and years later got this vinyl release. It's so alive. But get any version you can. -
Nice clarity. Lacks bass but if you can eq just a smidge, this pressing is very enjoyable.
