Lisätietoa:

The Tone Poets series is a set of vinyl reissues celebrating the legendary label’s sonic voyagers, artists who forged their own paths to produce some truly original sounds. The collection was borne of Blue Note President Don Was’s admiration for the exceptional audiophile rereleases issued by the independ- ent company Music Matters. Attention to detail has been paid to getting these reissues right in every conceivable way, from the jacket graphics to the print quality; from Kevin Gray’s superior vinyl mastering to the 180G pressings by Re- cord Technology Inc.
