The album opens with a blistering take of Dizzy Gillespie’s tune “Be-Bop” that demonstrates Clark’s dexterity before downshifting into a medium tempo swing through Rogers and Hart’s “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was.” Two more bop themes follow with excellent renditions of Gillespie and John Lewis’ “Two Bass Hit” and “Tadd’s Delight” by Tadd Dameron. Clark’s profound lyricism and inventive lines are evident on an excellent version of “Softly As In A Morning Sunrise” and the album closes with an exquisite solo performance of “I’ll Remember April.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoe Harley,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emastered by\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKevin Gray\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efrom the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA1: Be-Bop\u003cbr\u003eA2: I Didn't Know What Time It Was\u003cbr\u003eA3: Two Bass Hit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1: Tadd’s Delight\u003cbr\u003eB2: Softly As In A Morning Sunrise\u003cbr\u003eB3: I’ll remember April\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONNY CLARK TRIO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49306917372087,"sku":"rig1791365122284","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9859\/7559\/files\/sonny-clark-trio-lp-blue-note-tone-poet-series_1.jpg?v=1791365126","url":"https:\/\/zorvaliq.com\/products\/sonny-clark-trio-lp-blue-note-tone-poet-series","provider":"Zorvaliq","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
