This album features an excellent backup quartet with Tommy Flanagan on piano and Kenny Burrell on guitar. The album is beautifully recorded by Rudy van Gelder, who did many of the best titles for Argo (the jazz subsidiary of Chess). The program includes a mix of ballads like Star Eyes and You're My Thrill and more up-tempo pieces such as Lester Leaps In (a splendid version of this classic).

The LP is from the ultra-rare Alto - Analogue series of out of print, audiophile LPs.
Features:
• Record Catalog Number: AA 014
• Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder at Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, February 13, 1964 and issued on the ARGO label
• Re-Mastered by Bernie Grundman - we believe the LP was made in the USA, but it could have been made in Germany.
• FACTORY SEALED - 180 gram vinyl - out of print The LP, JACKET and OUTER WRAP are all in MINT condition!! The LP is actually FACTORY SEALED!!  This LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).  A Short Note About LP GRADING - Mint {M} = Only used for sealed items. Near Mint {NM} = Virtually flawless in every way. Near Mint Minus {NM-} = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible. Excellent {EXC} = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise. Very Good Plus {VG+} = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive. Even on brand new, sealed records, some noise is inevitable - for best results, always properly clean your LPs before playing them.  This LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system). Don't let this rarity slip by!!!
