Cannonball Adderley - Know what I Mean? w/ Bill Evans - 180g

"Know What I Mean?" was originally released in 1960 as a collaboration between jazz saxophonist Cannonball Adderley and legendary pianist Bill Evans, along with the rhythm section of the Modern Jazz Quartet, Percy Heath (bass) and Connie Kay (drums). This new edition of the album is released as part of the OJC Series and is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI with (AAA) lacquers cut from the original master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio. It is presented in a Tip-On Jacket.
Adderley and Evans played together for nearly a year in one of the most significant units in contemporary jazz; the 1958 Miles Davis Sextet. It was a vital formative period for both men, followed shortly in each case by tremendous individual success. This memorable 1962 reunion was Cannoball's idea: the group is completed by the rhythm-support half of the Modern Jazz Quartet: Percy Heath and Connie Kay. In a remarkable display of their musical image and sensitivity, the buoyant Adderley and introspective Evans move effortlessly toward a middle ground that shows both to great advantage.
