Product Description
Contents: [Blue Note @ 85 (Remastered by Kevin Gray) Series 1, First Release] [Limited Edition] [Japan Exclusive] [UHQCD Specification] This is the latest reissue series, a Japan-exclusive project, commemorating the 85th anniversary of Blue Note, the greatest jazz label of all time. It features the latest remastering by Kevin Gray, the engineer who has demonstrated his mastery in US Blue Note analog reissue series such as "Tone Poet" and "Classic Vinyl." By utilizing the digital source he created for the analog reissues, the ultimate analog sound has been achieved, faithfully reproducing the sound of the original master tapes as much as possible. This is a collection of exhilarating R&B-infused performances, including the classic blues hit "She She Rider" and Ray Charles' "I Gotta Woman." It consists of a quartet session featuring an organ trio including Kenny Burrell and Percy Francis on tenor saxophone. The combination of lazy organ and bluesy guitar is superb.
