Description:
In honor of Blue Note Records' 80th Anniversary, the legendary Jazz label is launching the Blue Note 80 Vinyl Reissue Series. Distinct from the Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series, this 2nd series curated by Don Was and Cem Kurosman features mid-priced 180 gram vinyl releases in standard packaging with albums spanning the many eras of the label's history presented by themes : Blue Note Debuts, Blue Grooves, Great Reid Miles Covers, Blue Note Live, and Blue Note Drummer Leaders.

Recorded in 1962, Hub-Tones stands as one of the most significant artistic statements of Freddie Hubbard’s formidable career, and also features one of Reid Miles’ most iconic album cover designs. Presenting the trumpeter at the helm of an excellent quintet with James Spaulding (alto saxophone & flute), Herbie Hancock (piano), Reggie Workman (bass), and Clifford Jarvis (drums), the album opens with a breathtaking performance of the standard "You’re My Everything" followed by 4 Hubbard originals.
