Usually, it's nice to have loud music to cover up any surface noise on the record, and the music on this record is certainly loud enough to cover such noise. However, the vinyl itself is very quiet. During quiet parts, like between songs, I heard a click now and then, but that's about it. If deep grooves allow for a high gain recording to be put on record, then the grooves on this vinyl must be cut very deep to obtain such a brilliant recording.
With Blue Note records, I am never quite sure the quality that I'm going to get. But this record looked about perfect visually. The sound is excellent - great detail, natural instrument sound, players sonically easy to locate, etc.
The times that I've gotten great Blue Note records have always involved big name jazz people. The record I have is like those records. Therefore, I must surmise that Grant Green is one of the greats. I didn't know he was one of the big names in jazz.
