Is the tape in bad shape? posted on 12/06/2020 2 Stars i expected better from this series , This record sounds like it was cut by an amateur, maybe the tape was in bad shape either way not bad for 25bucks but not better than an Original blue note or even a 70s pressing, next time give RKS a crack at it........
