Distortion on Giant Steps?


I own several CD versions of John Coltranes Giant Steps. Seems to be major distortion (microphone, tape...) on the piano?

Such a great performance I can look past it but the distortion is a bit annoying, especially on piano solos.

Same holds true for occasional hum/buzz on Wes Montgomerys amp on a few of his albums.

I have heard other people talk about distortion on the Giants Steps album as well. I have to agree with others who said it appears to have been a result of the original recording.
