The recording quality on this vinyl is fantastic, really capturing the warmth of the piano in the Batiste Piano series. I’ve been playing side A on repeat all evening.

Side B really lets Jon Batiste’s improvisational style shine, and the vinyl itself is dead quiet between tracks. This third entry in the Batiste Piano series has been on heavy rotation since it arrived.

The piano work is beautifully clear on this vinyl, though I wish the jacket had a bit more info about the recording session. Still, it’s a warm, immersive listen from start to side two.
