The year 2024 marks the 85th anniversary of the founding of Blue Note, the most powerful jazz label in history.
Tower Records will release an SA-CD hybrid version of selected popular titles from its catalog, "BLUE NOTE SA-CD HYBRID SELECTION".

Founded in 1939 in New York by German immigrant Alfred Lion, Blue Note is one of the most prestigious jazz labels in the world. Founded by German immigrant Alfred Lion, it is no exaggeration to say that jazz = Blue Note and Blue Note = jazz. The jazz hits that emerged from these albums are innumerable. The engineer was Rudy Van Gelder, a master of jazz music who has worked on many famous jazz albums.

The SA-CD hybrid version is the first SACD release of some of the well-known and classic recordings that are no longer available on SACD and are now hard to find on the market. The sound of Rudy Van Gelder's ideal form of jazz has been reproduced.

The five titles released in this third volume of the series are masterpieces of bruno-toned music that take the listener one step further.
Sonny Rollins delivers a superb live performance with his saxophone trio, Kenny Burrell shines with his bluesy guitar work, Herbie Hancock's horn ensemble and piano blend beautifully, and Wayne Shorter is superb with his gorgeous members and excellent original compositions, Bobby Hutcherson's emotional vibraphone sound is intoxicating.
The two titles by Wayne Shorter and Bobby Hutcherson are the world's first SACD hybrids.

The sound of real jazz is brought back to life in high sound quality.

All are complete production limited editions.
