Product Description
Contents: [Limited Edition] [Japan Exclusive] [UHQCD Specification] [First UHQCD Release] Blue Note @ 85 (Remastered by Kevin Gray) 3rd Series, 2nd Release 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 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 reissue, the album achieves the ultimate analog sound, faithfully reproducing the sound of the original master tapes as much as possible. As the title "New Frontier" suggests, this is a modal album that sets itself apart from the jazz-rock-influenced previous work, "The Sidewinder." All tracks are Lee Morgan originals. Pay attention to the title track, which begins with a majestic intro, and "Mr. Kenyatta," which has a rhythmic theme. Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock participate.
