Just picked up my first official Jazz album, Kind of Blue.
I love it; its everything i expected and more.
However, when using headphones, why am I hearing certain instruments only in the left ear while hearing others on the right? Is this par for the course with Jazz recordings?
I find listening to a 3 minute horn solo, solely through the right channel a little fatiguing (for example).
I can imagine this type of instrument separation sounding incredible on a proper surround sound system.
