Notes from Michael Cuscuna about the remastering and sound quality as printed in the booklet:

"All previous reissues of this material have been derived from the 1957 12-inch LP master, which turns out to be second or third generation. The original tapes of each tune were filed individually and sound considerably better. Rudy Van Gelder returned to these masters, transferred them in 24-bit to digital and worked his sonic magic. The result is a clearer and more present sound than ever before on these classic recordings. -Michael Cuscuna, 2000." Tracks 1, 2, 5, and 7 recorded January 21, 1949 in New York City. Tracks 4, 8, 10, and 11 recorded April 22, 1949 in New York City. Tracks 3, 6, 9, and 12 recorded March 9, 1950 in New York City. All transfers from analog to digital were made at 24-bit resolution.
