Description:

Cliff Jordan by Cliff Jordan, released 1 November 2024. This version of Cliff Jordan comes as a 1xLP. - 180G

Vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold tip-on jacket. Under-recognized tenor Clifford Jordan blew in from Chicago with a trio of excellent Blue Note sessions in 1957, including this self-titled release featuring a septet with Lee Morgan (trumpet), Curtis Fuller (trombone), John Jenkins (alto sax), Ray Bryant (piano), Paul Chambers (bass) and Art Taylor (drums). This Blue Note Tone Poet Series mono edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI.

Recorded on June 2, 1957 at Van Gelder Studios, Hackensack, New Jersey Please note: there's a misprint on release: despite to the description both on the jacket's spine and the Blue Note official website (Tone Poet Series section), the release results to be clearly stereo: winds are distributed on left (only the tenor sax in the middle), bass in the middle and drums on right. Avoid to edit the mono tag as per release. The label also is wrong, it should say 'STEREO' on a stereo recording. 'Microgroove' on a mono recording.
