Blue Note 84203 – Tone Poet Series in a thick gatefold jacket on 180g vinyl

Blue Note founder Alfred Lion consideredAndrew Hillto be a pianist and composer who was every bit as strikingly original and important as Thelonious Monk and began recording Hill with a fervor in 1963. Hill, for his part, did not disappoint. The pianist burst out of the gate with a torrent of creativity that produced five remarkable albums in just eight months:Black Fire,Smoke Stack,Judgment!,Point of Departure, andAndrew!!!Perhaps overshadowed by its predecessorPoint of Departure, which is widely regarded as Hills masterpiece, 1964sAndrew!!!has remained an unfairly underrated entry in Hills magnificent Blue Note discography. With a quintet featuring the Sun Ra Arkestra saxophonistJohn Gilmorealong with vibraphonistBobby Hutcherson, bassistRichard Davis, and drummerJoe Chambers, Hill presented six of his mercurial inside-out compositions including The Groits and Black Monday.

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).
