There was a priceless moment at a demo of some fashionable monitor speakers here in Nashville. After playing a wide array of outstanding recordings from the 1980s and later, they put on Sinatra at the Sands. Everybody in the room's jaw dropped at how much more engaging the audio sounded than everything else we had just heard.
I couldn't resist pointing out that Wally Heider told me Sinatra was singing through his gold Shure 546 and that he had mixed that album using Altec 604s!
The Quincy Jones arrangements played by the Count Basie band didn't exactly hurt...
