VARIOUS – Alts ‘n Outs: The Other Side Of Blue Note – LP – 180g Vinyl [SEP 12]

LP – 180g Black Vinyl. Compilation of alternate takes & outtakes from iconic Blue Note sessions by Cannonball Adderley, Grant Green, Wayne Shorter, Art Blakey, Jimmy Smith & Sonny Clark released on vinyl for the first time.

Blue Note sessions often yielded more recorded material than could be fit on a single LP. Some of these ended up in expanded CD/digital versions, but very few have found their way to vinyl.

Alt’s ‘N Outs features a fascinating new collection of alternate and bonus tracks, buried treasure, from six of the most noteworthy albums in Blue Note history: Cannonball Adderley‘s “Somethin’ Else“, Grant Green‘s “Idle Moments“, Wayne Shorter‘s “Speak No Evil“, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers‘ “Moanin‘”, Jimmy Smith‘s “Back at the Chicken Shack“, and Sonny Clark‘s “Cool Struttin’“.
