Sam Rivers - Dimensions & Extensions (Tone Poet) Sam Rivers
• Stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition
• Pressed on 180g vinyl at Record Technology Inc. (RTI)
• Mastered by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) from the original analog master tapes
• Packaged in a deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket
The last of four distinctive albums made by saxophonist Sam Rivers for Blue Note in the 1960s, Dimensions & Extensions is fascinating for the presence of Donald Byrd who makes a rare foray into the avant-garde alongside Julian Priester, James Spaulding, Cecil McBee, and Steve Ellington for a set of evocative Rivers originals.
Extreme attention to detail has been paid to getting these right in every conceivable way, from the jacket graphics and printing quality to superior LP mastering (direct from the master tapes) by Kevin Gray to superb 180g audiophile LP pressings by Record Technology Inc. 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.
