Description
J.J. JOHNSON The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vol. 2 (Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series 2026 UK/EU 10-track LP presenting the album in its original mono configuration, mastered all-analog by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes andpressed on 180-gram vinyl at Optimal. A pivotal architect of modern jazz trombone, J. J. Johnson translated the vocabulary of bebop into a fluent, agile brass voice, earning the respect of figures such as Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. After appearing on Miles Davis' first Blue Note session in 1952, Johnson was invited by Alfred Lion to lead a series of dates that now stand among the label's defining early-1950s recordings. These sessions capture an extraordinary run of line-ups: a 1953 sextet featuring Clifford Brown, Jimmy Heath and John Lewis; a 1954 quintet with Wynton Kelly and Charles Mingus; and a 1955 date alongside Hank Mobley, Horace Silver and Paul Chambers, with Kenny Clarke anchoring each session on drums. When Blue Note moved from 10" to 12" LP in 1956, the label consolidated these recordings into expanded 1500 Series editions, including The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson, Vol. 2. Picture sleeve with hype sticker, factory sealed. Recommended)
