Description
LP - This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g black vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.
Blue Note founders Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff had open ears and open minds, as they proved time and time again through the early part of the 1960s as they documented some of the most adventurous players of the modern jazz scene including Andrew Hill, Eric Dolphy, and Tony Williams. But it wasn’t until they brought Ornette Coleman and Don Cherry to the label in 1965 that they fully embraced the avant-garde. Coleman and Cherry had made history together years prior as the frontline of Coleman’s revolutionary quartet that turned the jazz world on its ear in 1959 when it arrived at the Five Spot Café in NYC. Though Cherry co-led the album The Avant-Garde with John Coltrane for Atlantic Records in 1961, his career as a bandleader began with his bold Blue Note debut Complete Communion recorded in December 1965 (Coleman had documented his new trio live at the Golden Circle in Stockholm for his own Blue Note debut just weeks before). On two extended side-long suites—“Complete Communion” and “Elephantasy”—Cherry expounds upon his expansive musical vision with a quartet of intrepid companions: tenor saxophonist Leandro “Gato” Barbeiri, bassist Henry Grimes, and drummer Edward Blackwell.
Blue Note Tone Poet Series:
The Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series was born out of Blue Note President Don Was’ admiration for the exceptional audiophile Blue Note LP reissues presented by Music Matters. Was brought Joe Harley, a.k.a. the “Tone Poet,” on board to curate and supervise a series of reissues from the Blue Note family of labels.
Extreme attention to detail has been paid to getting these right in every conceivable way, from the jacket graphics and printing quality to superior LP mastering (direct from the master tapes) by Kevin Gray to superb 180g audiophile LP pressings by Record Technology Inc. Every aspect of these Tone Poet releases is done to the highest possible standard. It means that you will never find a superior version. This is IT.
