The Gil Evans Orchestra – Out Of The Cool 180g Analogue Productions Vinyl

£49.95

“The album is worth getting for the 15 minutes of ‘La Nevada’ alone but the rest is equally great including the cinematic side closer ‘Where Flamingoes Fly.’ … The sonics here with a cut from the master tape by Ryan K. Smith (yes, the master tape- I have a current photo that for some reason I can’t share with you) are incredibly transparent, spacious and flat-out thrilling … and somewhat brighter and less mid-band rich than the long out of print Alto-Analogue edition Bernie Grundman cut in 1997. Both are worth having for different sonic reasons and if you have a clean original Rudy Van Gelder cut (A-4) you may think you are set, but that cut is less spacious, somewhat dynamically compressed, has the RVG lower bass roll-off and is definitely less transparent — not that it’s bad and some people do like the more ‘in your face’ excitement. This one’s here now though! Do not miss it!”Music = 10/11; Sound = 10/11 – Michael Fremer, AnalogPlanet.com.

The pressing quality is excellent, delivering pretty much everything you could want and expect from a reissue like this: 180-gram, dark black, dead quiet and perfectly centered vinyl. Kudos again to Quality Record Pressing (QRP) for that attention to important details.” — Mark Smotroff, Audiophile Review, May 18, 2021. Read the entire review here.

A groundbreaking jazz recording by the longtime Miles Davis collaborator Gil Evans highlights the latter’s supreme and influential skills as a jazz orchestrator.

This album is a brilliant example of Evans’ ability to make a large orchestra sound like a smaller jazz combo using orchestrations that infuse the larger unit with the immediacy and spontaneity of the smaller. Out Of The Cool features some of Evan’s finest compositions, including the famous “La Nevada” as well as a magnificent performance of George Russell’s “Sratosphunk.” Soloists include Budd Johnson (tenor), Johnny Coles (trumpet), Ray Crawford (guitar), Elvin Jones (drums), Ron Carter (bass) and Jimmy Knepper (trombone). The ensemble is superbly recorded by the legendary Rudy Van Gelder. A must-have for all lovers of jazz.

£79.95
Released in early 1976, the title track of Bad Company’s third album “Run With The Pack” is, what one critic described as, “a male-bonding type of song” that frontman Paul Rodgers was inspired to write about the group’s non-stop touring adventures.
“Run With The Pack” is notable for its string arrangement, which Rodgers said he had in mind from the outset. “I wrote that song on the piano, and when I played it to the guys they fell right in. In my head, strings were always part of the song.”
