Bud Powell,Bud Powel The Amazing Bud Powell Vol. 1 [Limited Edition] (UHQCD) Japan Music CD

Product Description Contents: [Limited Edition] [Japan Exclusive] [UHQCD Specification] Blue Note @ 85 (Remastered by Kevin Gray) 2nd Series, 2nd Installment. This is the latest reissue series, a Japan-exclusive project, commemorating the 85th anniversary of Blue Note, the greatest jazz label in history. It features the latest remastering by Kevin Gray, an engineer who has demonstrated his virtuosity in US Blue Note analog reissue series such as "Tone Poet" and "Classic Vinyl." By utilizing the digital source he created for the analog reissue, the sound of the original master tape has been reproduced as faithfully as possible, achieving the ultimate analog sound. This release includes the first two sessions (1949 and 1951) of the five-part "The Amazing..." series recorded at Blue Note. You can hear Bud Powell, the "father of modern jazz piano," playing at his peak. The trio performance starts with three consecutive "Un Poco Loco"s, which is amazing. Powell takes on the Latin beat laid down by Max Roach. In the quintet performance, he clashes with the tragically short-lived genius Fats Navarro. The participation of Sonny Rollins (18 years old) is also invaluable.
