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. This is the second live recording from Birdland, a prestigious New York jazz club known as the "World Jazz Corner." Wayne Shorter, who weaves dynamic solos with his distinctive phrases; Lee Morgan, who captivates with his unrestrained playing; and Bobby Timmons, who nails block chords, are all supported by the legendary Art Blakey's passionate drumming.
