ANDREW HILL The Complete Blue Note Sessions (1963-1966)
NM/NM Vinyl 10 LP Set in Collector Box

Record label/brand: Mosaic MQ10-161
upc/mpn: None

Pianist Andrew Hill's challenging compositional style puzzled many jazz fans during his lifetime. Despite this, many masters of post-bop cite the influence of his boundary-pushing methods. This growing reputation amongst jazz musicians has led fans, critics, and scholars to reassess his legacy, especially his recordings for Blue Note in the 1960s. Mosaic's 180 gram, audiophile, limited-edition, ten-LP box Set is a treasure trove for hardcore fans of the composer/pianist.

Limited Edition #0454.

Corners of box are sharp and sides are rigid. There are no signs of shelf wear. Cover is glossy and black and white image is vibrant and bold. Vinyl is like new. Looks to be unplayed.

This box is long out of print and getting harder to find - especially in this near mint condition!

Review: Andrew Hill was one of the greatest pianists of the '60s, but he never quite received his due. Hill was a skillful, cerebral musician that consciously positioned his music between hard bop and free. He was at his peak in the mid-'60s, as his playing and composing continued to explore new territory. All of his seminal recordings for Blue Note between 1963 and 1966 are collected on the limited-edition, seven-disc box set The Complete Blue Note Andrew Hill Sessions (1963-66). During those three years, he recorded with an astonishing array of talents, including Eric Dolphy, Freddie Hubbard, Sam Rivers, Joe Henderson, Roy Haynes, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Richard Davis, Joe Chambers, John Gilmore, and Kenny Dorham. The box features 15 alternate takes, including ten previously unreleased cuts and a composition that has never been released. The sheer scope of the set means that it's only of interest to serious jazz collectors, but it proves that Hill was one of the most adventurous and rewarding pianists of the '60s.
