The series presents affordable, high-quality reissues in standard packaging that are mastered by Kevin Gray of Cohearent Audio and manufactured on 180g vinyl at Optimal Media in Germany. The pressings are all-analog whenever an analog source is available, with Gray mastering directly from the original master tapes. Blue Note Records has recorded the legends of Jazz and has traced the entire evolution of the music from the early days of Boogie Woogie, Hot Jazz and Swing, through the innovations of Bebop, Hard Bop, Post-Bop, Soul Jazz, Avant-Garde, and 70s Fusion, and into the vibrant sounds of Jazz’s many modern-day incarnations. The Classic Vinyl Series is curated by Don Was and Cem Kurosman and is broad in its scope. The series reissues the best-known Blue Note classics from the 1950s and 60s, but also goes deeper, exploring the many different eras and styles of the legendary label’s eight-decade history with the aim of telling their story and fully representing the Blue Note motto: The Finest In Jazz Since 1939. A saxophonist of striking originality, Sam Rivers was born in Oklahoma and exposed to music from an early age by his pianist mother and gospel singer father. Rivers moved to Boston to study at the Boston Conservatory and eventually met, and began performing with, the drummer Tony Williams who was barely a teenager at the time. Williams would open several doors for Rivers including recommending him for what would be a short stint in the Miles Davis Quintet, but also bringing Rivers to the attention of Blue Note’s Alfred Lion. Williams featured Rivers on his Blue Note debut Life Time in 1964, which led to Rivers’ appearance on organist Larry Young’s album Into Somethin’ before the saxophonist was offered his own recording deal with Blue Note. A month later Rivers was in Rudy Van Gelder’s studio recording his astonishing debut album Fuchsia Swing Song with an extraordinary quartet featuring Williams, bassist Ron Carter, and pianist Jaki Byard. Although a strong avant-garde undercurrent flowed through his music, Rivers kept a foot planted firmly in post-bop and the blues on this impressive set of his originals including the fleet-footed title track, the hard-charging “Downstairs Blues Upstairs,” and the stunning ballad “Beatrice” which remains Rivers’ most beloved composition. Musicians: Sam Rivers, tenor saxophone Jaki Byard, piano Ron Carter, bass Anthony Williams, drums Features: • Blue Note Classic Vinyl Reissue Series • All analog 180g vinyl LP • Mastered by Kevin Gray directly from the original master tapes • Manufactured at Optimal in Germany • Standard packaging Artist Sam Rivers Genre Jazz Label Blue Note Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Fuchsia Swing Song Downstairs Blues Upstairs Cyclic Episode Luminous Monolith Beatrice Ellipsis Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Sam Rivers and more from Jazz View Product Quick View Sam Rivers Contours Jazz | Blue Note Tone Poet | 180g, 1LP Released 23rd April 2019 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sam Rivers Contours £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note Tone Poet SKU: 7724899 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 23rd April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sam Rivers Contrasts Jazz | ECM | 180g, 1LP Released 16th February 2016 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sam Rivers Contrasts £15.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 3743507 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 16th February 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sam Rivers Contours Jazz | Heavenly Sweetness | 180g, 1LP Released 3rd March 2014 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sam Rivers Contours £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Heavenly Sweetness SKU: HS037VL Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 3rd March 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Harold Vick Don’t Look Back Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 18th May 2018 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Harold Vick Don’t Look Back £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: SES-7431 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 18th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Piero Umiliani Intrigo a Los Angeles OST Jazz | Contempo | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 15th June 2015 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Piero Umiliani Intrigo a Los Angeles OST £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Contempo SKU: C02008LP Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 15th June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alice Coltrane Kirtan: Turiya Sings Jazz | Impulse | 2LP Released 16th July 2021 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alice Coltrane Kirtan: Turiya Sings £30.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impulse SKU: 3593976 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 16th July 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis Volume 2 Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 19th October 2015 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Miles Davis Volume 2 £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 54734762 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th October 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Binker And Moses Journey to the Mountain of Forever Jazz | Gearbox | 2LP Released 26th March 2021 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Binker And Moses Journey to the Mountain of Forever £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Gearbox SKU: GB1537OBI Formats: 2LP Released Date: 26th March 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kenny Dorham Jazz Contrasts Jazz | New Land | 180g, 1LP Released 17th November 2023 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kenny Dorham Jazz Contrasts £32.00 Genre: Jazz Label: New Land SKU: NEWLAND006 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sonny Clark Cool Struttin Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 25th June 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sonny Clark Cool Struttin £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 3579178 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 25th June 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Avishai Cohen Arvoles Jazz | Believe Recordings | 1LP Released 5th March 2021 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Avishai Cohen Arvoles £16.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Believe Recordings SKU: RDLP4619 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th March 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dizzy Gillespie Live At The Singer Concert Hall 1973 (The Lost Recordings) Jazz | The Lost Recordings | 180g, 2LP Released 11th September 2023 £TBC Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dizzy Gillespie Live At The Singer Concert Hall 1973 (The Lost Recordings) £TBC Genre: Jazz Label: The Lost Recordings SKU: TLR 1704028V Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 11th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nik Bartschs Mobile Continuum Jazz | ECM | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 4th March 2016 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nik Bartschs Mobile Continuum £27.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 4764790 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 4th March 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
