Sonny Rollins A Night At The Village Vanguard On Limited Edition 180g Japanese Import LP! 

This series of Blue Note titles are made for music lovers and collectors who are not happy with the current trend in mastering at 45-RPM. Many of our customers have complained about flipping sides every eight to ten minutes. These Japanese pressings are made for these jazz lovers, at the standard speed of 33 1/3.

For many decades, Japanese pressings have been sought out by audiophiles and serious collectors the world over. Their mastering technology is first-class and the pressing quality is the world’s best. Japanese pressing plants are virtual “Clean Rooms”, unlike pressing plants here in the USA. LPs from Japan have always been the quietest ever manufactured! These LPs only get pressed once; don’t miss out or you’ll be paying a lot more on eBay.

The mid-fifties was an astonishing period for the saxophone genius and of all of his great work in this era, A Night At The Village Vanguard and Saxophone Colossus remain his crowning achievements. With just bass (Wilbur Ware) and drums (Elvin Jones) in support here, Rollins creates tenor saxophone improvisations of incredible beauty and inexhaustible creativity. A Night At The Village Vanguard features an extremely gifted threesome, with each musician seeming to invent new ways to swing, without a note or a musical opportunity wasted. Now available on Limited Edition 180g Japanese Import LP!
