Description:
Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series : "Tone Poet" Joe Harley co-founder and co-producer of the acclaimed Music Matters audiophile vinyl series is the producer of this new series of all-analog, mastered-from-the-original-master-tape 180 gram audiophile vinyl reissues in deluxe gatefold packaging. Mastering was done by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) and vinyl was manufactured at Record Technology Incorporated (RTI). The titles were handpicked by Harley and cover lesser-known Blue Note classics, modern era standouts, and albums from other labels under the Blue Note catalog.

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 180 gram audiophile LP pressings by Record Technology Inc. Every aspect of these Blue Note / Tone Poet releases is done to the highest possible standard. It means that you will never find a superior version. This is IT.

Saxophonist & flutist Sam Rivers followed-up his striking debut Fuchsia Swing Song with the tremendous album Contours, which was recorded at Rudy Van Gelder’s Englewood Cliffs, NJ studio in 1965 with a top flight band featuring Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Joe Chambers on drums. The quintet explored four of Rivers’ engaging original compositions “Point of Many Returns”, “Dance of the Tripedal”, “Euterpe” & “Mellifluous Cacophony".
