Gary Karr
Double Bass HDADPlus HDAD 2013-PLUS $25.00 MSRP Released February 15, 2008 Listed in Classical Gary Karr became an audiophile favorite largely as a result of the King Super Analogue recording of Albinoni’s Adagio in G minor played by Gary Karr on solo bass with organ accompaniment. In 1959, Gary Karr made his first record entitled “Gary Karr Plays Double Bass” a collection of pieces from Eccles, Ravel, Bloch and others for Golden Crest Records. A few years later a second recording of Alec Wilder compositions for Bass and Piano and Bass and Guitar was also released on Golden Crest. On this outstanding second effort Gary Karr is accompanied by Bernie Leighton on piano and Fredrick Hand on guitar. After auditioning the master tapes we decided that these two wonderful recordings by a stellar bass musician needed to be reissued which is what we have done here by combining the recordings into a two disc set as part of the “Classic Records Presents…” Series. Both titles were mastered and transferred by Bernie Grundman in Hollywood California from the original analog master tapes for the HDAD+ release that includes both a 16/44.1 CD and a DVD audio disc at 24/192 and 24/96. This release is also available as a two disc set on LP mastered and cut on Classic Records’ “All Tube” cutting system. If you are a Gary Karr fan then this is a must have release, If you are unfamiliar with “Mr. Bass” then these recording are a great place to start. Current Reviews:
