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. Joe Henderson, a leading tenor saxophonist of the 1960s Blue Note era, collaborates with his mentor Kenny Dorham for the third time. Backed by Coltrane's rhythm section of McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones, he powerfully unleashes his unique, undulating phrases. The original "Serenity," with its melancholic theme, is one of Henderson's signature songs.
