[Pre Order] Jackie McLean - Vertigo - Tone Poet LP *

Release Date: August 7, 2026

A Blue Note Tone Poet 180g reissue of Jackie McLean's adventurous mid-'60s session.

Primarily drawn from a dynamic 1963 quintet session, Vertigo features Jackie McLean across a dizzying array of styles from hard bop and slow blues to sophisticated funk and bristling post-bop. Joining the alto saxophonist are Donald Byrd, Herbie Hancock, Butch Warren, and Tony Williams. This stereo Blue Note Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket.
