Thad Jones - The Magnificent Thad Jones - Blue Note Classic LP

Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series — 180g Mono LP, Mastered by Kevin Gray from the Original Analog Tapes!

The Magnificent Thad Jones is widely regarded as the greatest small-group recording of the trumpeter and composer's career. Recorded in July 1956 with Billy Mitchell (tenor sax), Barry Harris (piano), Percy Heath (bass) and Max Roach (drums), the album opens with an iconic performance of "April in Paris" complete with Jones's sly "Pop Goes the Weasel" quote. Other highlights include the Jones originals "Billie-Doo" and "Thedia" and the stunning ballad "If Someone Had Told Me." This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is mono, all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
