Bobby Hutcherson
Montara
Blue Note 551 – Tone Poet Series on 180g vinyl

A high-water mark ofBobby Hutchersons remarkably creative and diverse 1970s Blue Note output,Montarais a feel-good album that found the great vibraphonist conjuring up an intoxicating hybrid of Latin jazz and fusion grooves. Recorded in Hutchersons hometown of Los Angeles, the album featured a talented cast of musicians includingWillie Bobo,Blue Mitchell,Bobby Matos,Ernie Watts,Harvey Mason,Plas Johnson,Fred Jackson,Larry Nash, andChuck Domanico. Hutchersons stunning virtuosity and nuanced musicality is on full display across this set that moves between the percolating rhythms of La Malanga, Yuyo, and Oye Como Va and the rich harmonies and alluring textures of Montara, Love Song, and Little Angel.

Blue Note Tone Poet Series
The Blue Note Tone Poet 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 (from Music Matters), 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 180 gm 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.

Blue Note Records Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series is produced by Joe Harley and features all-analog, mastered-from-the-original-master-tape 180g audiophile vinyl reissues in deluxe gatefold packaging. Mastering is by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) and vinyl is manufactured at Record Technology Incorporated (RTI).
