Description
CANNONBALL ADDERLEY Somethin' Else hails from 2008 and is a SEALED 200 Gram 2Lp set pressed at 45 RPM from Analogue Productions (slight cut on spine). "Cannonball Adderley's Somethin' Else. Known by many as Kind of Blue II, arguably produced the finest version of 'Autumn Leaves' and 'Love For Sale' ever recorded, it was a legitimate attempt to bring Miles back for an encore. The muted tonality is a tour de force…a clinic on trumpet if you will." – Rich Brown, Klipsch Audio Technologies
"…This is one of the best-loved titles in the Blue Note catalog. How does this 45 RPM two disc re-issue stack up to the original? Will this new remastering of 'Love For Sale' have you thinking about putting your original pressing up for sale? The sound of my original mono and stereo pressings, as well as the Mobile Fidelity CD are all pretty good sounding recordings of great jazz. But this version leaves them all in the dust…the rock solid horn sound and the improved timbre add so much to the 'you are there' feeling on this new release, that for me there is no going back to my original pressings." Recording = 8/10; Music = 10/10 – Dennis D. Davis, Hi-Fi+, Issue 59
"…As much as I'd love to relay all kinds of anecdotes about the challenges Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray encounter during the mastering sessions, I witness none. These boys know the sound of the facility and the Van Gelder masters like the backs of their hands…Back home a month later, I unpack some test pressings Chad Kassem has sent me…I hear the most realistic-sounding drums ever reproduced by my system. It's as though I'm sitting at the point of creation, experiencing the same high that brought such gifted musicians together as one. Steve Hoffman, Kevin Gray, Chad Kassem, and Don MacInnis have done Rudy Van Gelder and his Blue Note artists proud." – Jason Victor Serinus, Stereophile, April 2008
One of the best known record dates in the history of modern jazz, the chemistry among Adderley, Miles Davis, Hank Jones, Sam Jones and Art Blakey is amazing. Their reworkings of "Autumn Leaves" and "Love For Sale" are masterpieces. Miles' title tune and Nat Adderley's "One For Daddy-O" are classics.
