GEORGE RUSSELL

For this 1959 classic, Russell assembled an all-star orchestra that included pianist Bill Evans (a frequent participant in Russell's recordings), Art Farmer, Bob Brookmeyer, John Coltrane, and Milt Hinton. Singer Jon Hendricks provided a beatnik-style stream of consciousness narrative that opened and closed the truly unique performance.

"Every step in our production process - from track selection to mastering, pressing and packaging - is designed to meet the highest standards, and we want everyone who listens to these albums to feel the love and hard work that we invest in everything we do," said Chad Kassem, CEO of Acoustic Sounds.
