Red's lightly swinging style shines on this 8-song set of bluesy originals and obscure standards, which was drawn from two different quartet sessions. The first session – recorded in December 1959 with Wynton Kelly on piano, Sam Jones on bass, and Roy Brooks on drums – yielded six of the album's final cuts including the buoyant opener \"Bluesville\" and the stunning ballad \"Stay As Sweet As You Are.\" Red returned to the studio in January 1960 once again with Kelly on piano, but this time joined by Paul Chambers on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums, a trio that was also Miles Davis' rhythm section at the time having just recorded on \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKind of Blue \u003c\/em\u003ethe year before. The album's final two tracks feature this quartet on Red's original \"The Lope\" and the ballad \"Stairway to the Stars.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlue Note Records' acclaimed \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series\u003c\/strong\u003e continues in 2022.

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.\" \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJoe Harley\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMusicians\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSonny Red, alto saxophone\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWynton Kelly, piano\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaul Chambers \/ Sam Jones, bass\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJimmy Cobb \/ Roy Brooks, drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Blue Note Tone Poet Series\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Curated by Music Matters co-founder Joe Harley\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Audiophile-quality 180g vinyl LP\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• All-analog mastering (direct from the master tapes) by Kevin Gray\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Manufactured at Record Technology Incorporated\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Deluxe gatefold jacket packaging\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UMG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56682827678028,"sku":"602435381893","price":7.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/2913\/4412\/files\/SonnyRe_OutOfTh_CoverAr_3000DPI300RGB1000381574.jpg?v=1770595412","url":"https:\/\/vinylpulses.com\/products\/pre-order-sonny-red-out-of-the-blue-tone-poet-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
