Johnny Hartman I Just Dropped By To Say Hello: Verve by Request Series

Johnny Hartman's I Just Dropped By To Say Hello Newly Remastered from Original Analog Sources and Pressed on 180g Vinyl LP at Third Man Pressing in Detroit as Part of the Verve By Request Series.

The second of three albums Johnny Hartman recorded for Impulse! (and following the classic Coltrane/Hartman masterpiece), Hartman’s voice is again on display at his best, including “Wee Small Hours of the Morning,” “Charade” and “Sleepin’ Bee.” Hartman’s supporting cast is nearly as impressive as his voice, with Hank and Elvin Jones (piano/drums) and Milt Hinton (bass) as rhythm section. Kenny Burrell and Jim Hall contribute on guitar across the album and Illinois Jacquet (tenor) performs on five songs. The Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
