Art Pepper - Art Pepper Meets The Rhythm Section [Mono] [LIMIT 1 PER CUSTOMER]

According to jazz lore, on the morning of January 19, 1957, esteemed alto saxophonist Art Pepper woke up to learn that he was booked for a session, just hours later, with Miles Davis’ highly respected rhythm section (pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones)...

MMJ was the proto Tone Poet label. Joe Harley + KG AAA cuts of classic BN albums. They were pretty much the definitive BN reissues--so much so that BN ended up poaching the same team that did them for the Tone Poet series.

Joe Harley has said they will not be redoing any of the MMJ titles as Tone Poets (they may be done as BN Classics though). I think he made an exception for Blue Train because they did the additional stereo outtakes and a stereo and mono version.

MMJ ended up going a bit off the rails and the owner Ron was mad that flippers made more than him, so he started the trend of charging more for represses and making the price higher as supply dwindles. I don't think they have many, if any, licenses left to press these anymore.

here's the discogs listing for Candy:

You think that is bad you should see the secondary market. LOL. These are generally considered the best sounding versions of the Blue Note records. Unless you prefer the RVG OG's, but those go for even more.

MMJ are all AAA. Cut from the tapes and used the original artwork to recreate the covers.

:edit @MikeH beat me to it and had a better response. :D

I'm pretty shocked at some of the in-stock prices now though. Some are listed at $150+ now. Crazy!

Nope, and If I recall SY didn’t even want Blast First to release it when it initially dropped. I would love a reissue though but this ain’t it.

I love Yoshimi, but not enough to pay (much) more than standard retail for it. Cheapest used copy I've seen at my local in the last year or two was $69 :confused:
