Grant Green’s Nigeria is an under-recognized gem in the guitarist’s remarkable Blue Note catalog. Recorded in 1962, but not first released until 1980, the album features a top-shelf band with Sonny Clark on piano, Sam Jones on bass, and, in one of his only appearances with Green, Art Blakey on drums. The groove is deep and wide right from the start on the Sonny Rollins classic “Airegin” followed by a version of the Gershwin standard “It Ain’t Necessarily So” for the ages with Blakey stoking the fire with his powerhouse drumming and verbal shouts. Side B presents timeless renditions of three more standards: “I Concentrate On You,” “The Things We Did Last Summer,” and “The Song Is You.” Blue Note Records has announced the continuation of the acclaimed Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series in 2020. Launched in 2019 in honor of the label’s 80th Anniversary, the Tone Poet series is produced by Joe Harley (from Music Matters) and features all-analog, 180g audiophile vinyl reissues that are mastered from the original master tapes by Kevin Gray of Cohearent Audio. Tone Poet vinyl is manufactured at RTI in Camarillo, CA, and packaged in deluxe Stoughton Printing “Old Style” gatefold Tip-On jackets. The titles were once again handpicked by Harley and cover the crème de la crème of the Blue Note catalog along with underrated classics, modern era standouts, and albums from other labels under the Blue Note umbrella including Pacific Jazz and United Artists Records. 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. “The LPs are mastered directly from the original analog master tapes by Kevin at his incredible facility called Cohearent Mastering. We go about it in the exact same way that we did for so many years for the Music Matters Blue Note reissues. We do not roll off the low end, boost the top or do any limiting of any kind. We allow the full glory of the original Blue Note masters to come though unimpeded! Short of having an actual time machine, this is as close as you can get to going back and being a fly on the wall for an original Blue Note recording session.” – Joe Harley Musicians: Grant Green, guitar Sonny Clark, piano Sam Jones, bass Art Blakey, drums Features: • Blue Note Tone Poet Series • Curated by Music Matters co-founder Joe Harley • Audiophile-quality 180g vinyl LP • All-analog mastering (direct from the master tapes) by Kevin Gray • Manufactured at Record Technology Incorporated • Deluxe gatefold jacket packaging Artist Grant Green Genre Jazz Label Blue Note Tone Poet Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Airegin It Ain't Necessarily So I Concentrate On You The Things We Did Last Summer The Song Is You Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Grant Green View Product Quick View Grant Green Green Street (Classic Vinyl) Jazz | Decca (UMO) [GB] | Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 15th December 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Grant Green Green Street (Classic Vinyl) £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Decca (UMO) [GB] | Jazz | Blue Note SKU: 5524263 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 15th December 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Grant Green I Want to Hold Your Hand (Tone Poet) Jazz | Blue Note Tone Poet | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 1st December 2023 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Grant Green I Want to Hold Your Hand (Tone Poet) £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note Tone Poet SKU: 4509260 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 1st December 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Grant Green Live at Club Mozambique Jazz | Third Man Records / Blue Note | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 24th November 2023 £51.00 -
