This title remains a top-tier release in the Living Stereo series, with a hallmark natural presentation that avoids spotlighting with 3D imaging and gorgeous tone. It was recorded at the famed Manhattan Center, known for producing many of the greatest Living Stereo titles. This remastered version greatly enhances all of these elements from our original release and should not be overlooked.
