Duke Ellington - Ellington Indigos

180-gram all-analog pressing!

Newly remastered from the same analog tapes used for the 2012 Impex Records release by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering

Pressed at RTI

Winner of a Gruvy Award, chosen by AnalogPlanet's editor, Michael Fremer, for vinyl records that are musically and sonically outstanding and are also well mastered and pressed.

An all-analog shot of pure Duke at his most soulfully nocturnal. From the cats who brought you Time Further Out and Friday and Saturday Nights At the Blackhawk. Impex Records is making your nights a little cooler.

The dancing mood of the album should not prevent us from attentively listening to these exceptional recordings. After all, this is the Ellington orchestra and all the arrangements are full of new twists and innovative voices and improvisations.

As I hoped for. posted on 05/01/2024 5 Stars Reviewer: James In a word. This album is elegant! Mastering is flawless. I would recommend if you have a Shure V-15 type II or variant and or Denon 103 in your arsenal, this would be the cartridge to use with this album.

Just Beautiful posted on 05/14/2013 5 Stars Reviewer: dk This has become one of our favorites. Beautiful music, awesome band, quiet surfaces, very well recorded.

Great Sound Fun LP posted on 05/12/2013 5 Stars Reviewer: Triodeotl Great big huge studio sound with tons of air. Lots of fun they let one guy solo on two tracks. There are at least 12 players they all hold it back and it just sounds right when they don't. Get it now doubt if an original could sound any better. Can you even find one like new?
