Blue Note Tone Poet Series:
The Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series was born out of Blue Note President Don Was’ admiration for the exceptional audiophile Blue Note LP reissues presented by Music Matters. Was brought Joe Harley, a.k.a. the “Tone Poet,” on board to curate and supervise a series of reissues from the Blue Note family of labels.

Every aspect of these Tone Poet releases is done to the highest possible standard. It means that you will never find a superior version. This is IT.
