1LP - Part Of The Tone Poet series
Miles Davis’ earliest masterpiece Birth Of The Cool gets the royal treatment in celebration of the legendary trumpeter’s Centennial. Following his trial-by-fire tenure in the Charlie Parker Quintet in the mid-1940s, Davis emerged with bolstered confidence and a creative hunger to explore new directions. A regular gathering of like-minded musicians at arranger Gil Evans’ Manhattan apartment provided the workshop at which the Miles Davis Nonet was born, and in 1949-50 Davis led three seminal sessions for Capitol Records that documented this exciting new music with a cast of collaborators including Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz, J.J. Johnson, Kai Winding, John Lewis, Max Roach, Kenny Clarke, and others. The nonet featured a unique instrumentation with French horn and tuba to create new textures influenced by impressionist classical music that inspired lyrical improvisations by the band’s soloists on arrangements of pieces by Davis, Evans, Mulligan, Lewis, Denzil Best, Bud Powell, Johnny Mercer, and more.
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 mono Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) from the original analog phono reel master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at Record Technology Inc. (RTI), and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket featuring session photos.
