I just found a mint copy of this...th.jpg

It is a superb Sheffield Lab DtoD recording and well worth laying your hands on IF you like great SQ and Big Band.
 
Thanks, Gents...have it in the Amazon basket along with Reference Recordings Bach/Rameau.

Yeah, but your King James version won't be that King James version. Yours will be King James 'light.'

presumably because its the CD? I actually read that there was a re-release of this which was remastered? True?

the CD is mastered from a tape back-up. the LP press is direct-to-disc and sonically blows away all subsequent remasters.

thanks...I found this remaster:

Sheffield Lab Recordings is pleased to present the reissue of a historic recording: The Harry James Sessions. Consisting of three albums originally recorded direct-to-disc by Sheffield in 1976 and 1979, and now spectacularly re-mastered by Seth Winner from analog disc originals, this program of music from the height of the swing era is a vital representation of one of the great big bands of the 20th century. To hear this music recorded by Sheffield from the perspective of a single stereo microphone, is to hear this magnificent band as dancers heard it in front of the bandstand, with the impact and energy that we don't associate with historic recordings of another era. Pretty thrilling stuff! This amazing 2 disc set includes ALL the music from the Original LP albums: THE KING JAMES VERSION, COMIN' FROM A GOOD PLACE and STILL HARRY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
