Adderley and Evans played together for almost a year in one of the most important formations in contemporary jazz: the Miles Davis Sextet of 1958. This was a very formative time for both men, each of whom was followed by enormous individual success. The memorable reunion on 1962's “Know What I Mean?” on Riverside was Cannonball Adderley's idea – as was the inclusion of Modern Jazz Quartet rhythm section Percy Heath (bass) and Connie Kay (drums). In a remarkable demonstration of their musical range and sensibilities, the ebullient Adderley and the introspective Evans effortlessly navigated a path between hard bop and soul jazz.
As part of the acclaimed “Bill Evans Remaster Series”, Universal Music Japan is now presenting the sonically impressive adaptation of this Riverside classic – as a limited-edition, high-resolution SHM-SACD version (192 kHz/24 bit, non-hybrid). The original recordings for Riverside took place on January 27, February 21, and March 13, 1961 in New York.
This title is an SHM SACD. This format is the further development of the single-layer SACD and uses a particularly light-transparent plastic (Super High Material). It allows a much better readability of the pit-land structures on the surface than is possible with hybrid SACDs. Universal's SHM SACDs are generally re-digitized to DSD from the albums' master tapes without any changes. SHM SACDs can be played on any SACD player. Please do not use L'Art du Son or alcohol-based cleaning agents. - Please note: All titles are designed by Universal Music as limited edition collector's items for the Japanese market.
