Product Description
Contents: [Limited Edition] [Japan Exclusive] [Single Layer SACD - SHM Specification] Blue Note @85 (Remastered by Kevin Gray) SACD Selection Vol. 2 To commemorate the 85th anniversary of Blue Note, the greatest jazz label in history, this is the latest reissue series, Blue Note @85 (Remastered by Kevin Gray), a Japan-exclusive project. A selection of particularly popular masterpieces have been released in single-layer SACD - SHM specification format! This release 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 96kHz/24bit digital source he created for the analog reissues, the ultimate analog sound has been achieved, faithfully reproducing the sound of the original master tapes as much as possible. This is the fourth Blue Note release by Bud Powell, the father of modern jazz piano. It's a trio work featuring Sam Jones and Philly Joe Jones. The once-in-a-lifetime collaboration with Philly Joe is particularly striking. In the charming rumba-style "Buster Rise Again," the drums heat up midway through. The interplay with the piano, which clearly plays the theme, is delightful.
