Lee Morgan’s 1968 album Taru—which wouldn’t be first released until 1980 as part of the LT Series—found the trumpeter at a crossroads exploring a variety of styles. The band on this outstanding date is notable for several reasons including the elevating presence of guitarist George Benson who delivers inspired solos throughout. The session also marked Morgan’s first recorded collaboration with tenor saxophonist Bennie Maupin who would play an integral role on future Morgan albums including Caramba! and Live at the Lighthouse. Rounding out the sextet were pianist John Hicks, bassist Reggie Workman, and the ever-inspiriting drummer Billy Higgins. The six-song set covered a range of stylistic ground including modal jazz (“Avotcja One”), hard-charging post-bop (“Get Yourself Together”), beautiful balladry (“Haeschen” and “Taru, What’s Wrong With You?”), gospel-tinged numbers (“Dee Lawd”), and funky boogaloos (“Durem”).

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.

This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at Record Technology Inc. (RTI), and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.

The Perfect Water Shoe
Size: 6 Women/5 Men, Color: 1a-407 White
The SEEKWAY Water Shoes are an outstanding choice for anyone seeking both comfort and functionality in aquatic footwear. Designed to fit true to size, they eliminate the hassle of guessing or sizing up, ensuring a snug, reliable fit that adapts well to various foot shapes. The flexible upper material hugs your feet gently, offering a barefoot feeling without sacrificing support. Ease of wear is a highlight: the shoes slip on and off effortlessly, making them ideal for quick transitions between water and land. Whether you’re heading to the beach, preparing for a swim in the pool, or starting a kayaking adventure, you’ll appreciate how convenient and lightweight these aqua socks are. The stretchable fabric and minimal design contribute to their versatility—packing them takes up hardly any space, and they won’t weigh you down as you move. Quick-drying capabilities are another strong advantage. After wading through rivers or splashing in lakes, the shoes dry rapidly thanks to their breathable construction. This keeps your feet comfortable and reduces the risk of blisters, odor, or prolonged dampness. The materials used allow water to flow out easily, while also providing protection against rocks, shells, and other rough surfaces. Overall, the SEEKWAY Water Shoes blend comfort, true-to-size fitting, easy wearability, and fast drying to deliver a practical solution for a wide range of outdoor and aquatic activities. Whether you’re hiking near water, surfing, or simply enjoying a walk along the shoreline, these shoes give you the confidence and comfort you need for every adventure.

Comfortable and Great for Water Activities
Size: 10 Women/9 Men, Color: 1a-407 White
These water shoes are exactly what I was looking for. They are lightweight, comfortable, and fit true to size. The material dries quickly and feels breathable, which makes them perfect for the beach, pool, or any water activity. The sole provides good grip, even on wet surfaces, and they are easy to put on and take off. Overall, a great value for the price. I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and comfortable water shoes.

I L-O-V-E these!!!!
Size: 9 Women/8 Men, Color: 1a-407 White
UPDATE: I've tried several difference sellers/brands and keep coming back to these Seekway shoes. I think the key is for me that they are one-piece like water socks with ties rather than having separate tongues. Some other brands, the tongues are long and rub against your foot. These also have a very thin heel cup unlike others that were fine for short term, but on long walks, the thicker heeled ones rubbed nasty blisters in both heels. These Seekway DID NOT. The only down side is that the soles are very thin, so even with orthotics (Happy Step memory foam), when walking for several miles, I did find the balls of my feet sore. But in time, they've actually "toughened up" and now I walk about 3 miles per night in these shoes without any issue. Just bought my third pair! These shoes are soooooo comfortable with great tread and very breathable. I LOVE these! The price is very reasonable while quality is good. I have one foot that is slightly narrower, especially in the heel, than the other. After a bit of experimenting with the elastic ties, they fit great. True to size. And they look up-scale... unlike some old beach shoes I have from a few years ago. I actually forgot I had shoes on, that's how comfy they are. These are not for support, but that's not their purpose. If you like walking around barefoot yet want protection from injury or stepping on something icky, these are perfect. I also hear some podiatrists are praising barefoot-style shoes as good for building muscles in the foot and legs. Total win!

Good fit and comfort.
Size: 11.5 Women/10.5 Men, Color: 1o-506 Black
These fit well and are easy to wear in the water. They drain and dry quickly so you can move from wet to dry without having to change shoes. They kept my feet reasonably warm on a chilly day in the river. However the grip on the soles could be a bit better; they got pretty slippery when walking on rocks. They also don't offer much protection if you happen to step on something sharp. They're good if you need something versatile but I wouldn't recommend for serious river work.

Perfect for Cenotes – Lightweight, Quick-Drying & Comfortable
Size: 6 Women/5 Men, Color: 1a-407 White, Size: 6 Women/5 Men, Color: 1a-407 White
Perfect water shoes! The material is thin, but they dry very fast, which was exactly what I needed. I’m usually a size 6.5 and sized down half a size, and the fit was perfect. I used them for swimming and walking in cenotes in Mexico for about two and a half hours, and they were comfortable the entire time. Great grip and very practical!
