Product Description
Contents: [Limited Edition] [Blue Note RVG Rare Album Collection] [Rudy Van Gelder 100th Anniversary] [SHM-CD] [Japan Exclusive] Rudy Van Gelder (RVG), one of the greatest engineers in jazz history, recorded numerous masterpieces for Blue Note, Prestige, Impulse!, and others. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birth, the hit series "24 bit by RVG" is being reissued. Starting in 1998, he began digitally remastering his own Blue Note recordings, reviving the innovative Blue Note sound for the CD era. This time, 30 rare albums that have not been reissued in Japan in recent years have been carefully selected and reissued in SHM-CD format. A hidden gem of an album by The Three Sounds, including the super-famous tracks "Satin Doll" and "St. Thomas." Gene Harris's bluesy piano is the main focus, while Andrew Simpkins' bass and Bill Dowdie's drums create an exquisite groove in perfect harmony. Each song has a cleverly arranged and enjoyable feel.
