Description: Jack Wilson - Easterly Winds - Tone Poet LP 180g Vinyl LP! Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series!Mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio from Original Analog Tapes!Produced by Music Matters' Joe Harley!Pressed at RTI! The Chicago-born pianist and composer Jack Wilson enjoyed a wide-range of musical associations including work with the likes of Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan, Lou Rawls, Gerald Wilson, Roy Ayers, and recording leader dates for Atlantic before he made his Blue Note debut in 1966 with the highly unique Something Personal. Easterly Winds - the second of Wilson's three Blue Note albums and arguably his finest - found the pianist at the helm of a first-rate hard bop sextet with Lee Morgan on trumpet, Garnett Brown on trombone, Jackie McLean on alto saxophone, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums. The six-song set presented four Wilson originals including the groovy opener "Do It" and the sublime ballad "Nirvanna" in addition to a tender rendition of the Johnny Mandel tune "A Time for Love" and "Frank's Tune" by Frank Strozier, which was recently reimagined by Makaya McCraven on his 2021 Blue Note remix project Deciphering the Message. 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.
