while i don't have that one, i do have the other two:

Africa/Brass
A Love Supreme

both in 96/24 FLAC loaded on my Home Network's NAS! sounds great streaming to the 5507 & the Axioms roll it nicely! I have gotten a lot of good stuff from that site to include the uncompressed 96/24 FLAC of "Band On The Run" it comes it at 1.54gb in size and streams at 2880kbps it sounds incredible as do all the other FLAC files I have from HDTracks! even my cd's on the NAS ripped into WMALL (windows media lossless) stream at 1152kbps at 44.1/16 and they sound great too.

anyone looking for good high resolution audio that can support the FLAC codec, HDTracks is where you need to be looking!

Sweet!

I only have A Love Supreme, so this would make a nice addition for me. I didn't realize you were into Jazz Jason.

I find that as I grow older John, my taste in music grows wider. I started listening to jazz about a year ago.

I've got a few 96/24 downloads from HDTracks now and am very happy with their service. I wish they had even more selection of titles but hopefully it will grow.

Good to see the catalog of Coltrane 96/24 downloads is increasing.

As a side note, for SACD fans, there's a new mastering of A Love Supreme on SACD-Hybrid coming out shortly:

i've had "a love supreme" on SACD (SACD only) for quite a long time, are they simply releasing it with a dual layer (SACD/CD) or is it a true remastering of the material? I'd be surprised if it's the latter and it not be mentioned at the site or any of the other sites. both the SACD & the download of this album are both incredible.

The forthcoming SACD is a new re-master by Kevin Gray.

The new re-master was already released on 45RPM vinyl, and there are some "review" comments here:

Analog Productions has done quite a large number of Impulse SACDs:

John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme" was a few months ago released in the shm-sacd-format (check CD Japan, part of the buy 4 shm-sacd's and get one for free action).

The Ballads are possibly the best Trane album... Nice find!
