Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
Absolutely endorse this one, it's truly a rare and early Japanese original pressing from '65 (the release date isn't listed here). It's an amazing sounding reissue by Victor Record Company Japan, you won't be let down! Fantastic session and pressing, Victor really nailed it with Prestige material, even in the '70s.
Among all the "books" that Ervin put out in the mid-60s, this one truly stands out as his magnum opus. Sure, others might have a different opinion. The rest of the albums are fantastic, absolutely, but in this one, Ervin and the band nail it perfectly. Plus, the Van Gelder production just fits the arrangements so well—all those Coltrane sessions RVG did for Impulse! really show here!
This pressing is bursting with life, full of depth, color, and energy, yet it can go eerily quiet. Booker Ervin's performance feels like he's right there in my living space. Just like the rest of the AP Prestige series, it'll be reprinted, so I'd suggest placing a pre-order to secure your spot in the next batch.
Absolutely amazing all around. Booker and Tommy, they're among the best jazz musicians out there. This session is just outstanding. Fantastic pressing, massive clear soundstage, audiophile quality, beatiful !!!
