Released Nov 1993 well in what is mythical territory for the internet. That means a Wiki entry in only four languages and few sources. But this seemed interesting:

“A brilliant version (and overall session, that for some reason #BlueNote shelved for around 15 years before finally releasing it), with Green’s perfect tone propelling the #song into the stratosphere.” #GrantGreen open.substack.com/pub/mrlee718... #music #MusicSky #guitar #GuitarSky #jazz #JazzSky

Herbie Hancock, My Point of View, 1963 on Blue Note
Hancock's sophomore album as a leader, recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs NJ. Hancock joined by Donald Byrd (trumpet), Gracham Moncur III (trombone), Hank Mobley (tenor sax), Grant Green (guitar), Chuck Isreals (bass), and Anthony Williams (drums). Herbie Hancock is a master, and it is wonderful to find the early Blue Note albums - I now have the first five in good vinyl editions. All the tracks on this one are Hancock originals - love "Blind Man, Blind Man" which recalls & […]https://goatless.org/2026/05/28/herbie-hancock-my-point-of-view-1963-on-blue-note

Grant Green, Green is Beautiful, 1970 on Blue Note
Green joined here by Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Claude Bartee (tenor sax), Emmanuel Riggens (organ), Jimmy Lewis (bass), and Idris Muhammad (drums) plus Richard Lendrum (bongos) and Candido Camero (congas). Recorded in 1970 by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. My copy—via Salem Flea Marketplace—is the 2023 Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series reissue, mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and pressed at Optimal, which sounds (and looks) great.https://goatless.org/2026/05/16/grant-green-green-is-beautiful-1970-on-blue-note

#NowSpinning No More Water: The Gospel Of James Baldwin by Meshell Ndegeocello
I didn’t really have expectations when I threw this into my last #BlueNote order, but it seemed interesting when I read about it. What a wonderful surprise this has been so far.

Cliff Jordan, Cliff Jordan, 1957 on Blue Note
Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Hackensack NJ, Jordan is joined by John Jenkins (alto sax), Art Taylor (drums), Ray Bryant (piano), Curtis Fuller (trombone) and Lee Morgan (trumpet). This is one of two Blue Note LPs he put out in 1957 (the other was Blowing in From Chicago with John Gilmore). My copy—via Amazon—is the 2024 Blue Note Tone Poet Series reissue, with lacquer by Kevin Gray and pressing at RTI. Although they used the "mono" labels here and the spine also says mono, the LP is […]https://goatless.org/2026/04/28/cliff-jordan-cliff-jordan-1957-on-blue-note

Horace Silver Quintet, Silver’s Serenade, 1963 on Blue Note
The quintent here is Silver joined by Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Junior Cook (tenor sax), Gene Taylor (bass), and Roy Brooks (drums). Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs, with Alfred Lion producing. My copy—via Amazon—is another Blue Note Tone Poet Series reissue from 2024. Yes, I realize there are other jazz labels and other reissue series - but so many of these are so good they are hard to resist.https://goatless.org/2026/04/25/horace-silver-quintet-silvers-serenade-1963-on-blue-note

Wayne Shorter, Schizophrenia, 1969 on Blue Note
Eleventh Wayne Shorter album, with Herbie Hancock, Curtis Fuller, Ron Carter, James Spaulding, and Joe Chambers. Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder, with Francis Wolff producing.
This is transitional between post-bop and free jazz – looser and closer to the edge than my normal taste, but worth a listen for anyone interested in post-bop or Shorter and Hancock.
My copy as part of the Story of Blue Note Records VMP Anthology, 2024 reissue.

Good morning for some #autumnleaves. Have a few copies of this, went with the original mono press which is in remarkable condition. Probably my cleanest OG #bluenote. So great. #cannonballadderly #milesdavis #hankjones #samjones #artblakey #vinyl #jazz #jazzrecords @vinylrecords

Enjoying a nice early pressing of this classic I found recently.

The great unknown on this great album is alto sax player Kenny Rodgers (with a D), 19 at the time. There'a hardly any info to find about him. Thoughts?
Lee Morgan - Sextet
(1984 – Japan, Reissue, Mono, Blue Note – BLP 1541)

Great 1959 session with Clark accompanied by Hank Mobley, Donald Byrd, Paul Chambers and Art Blakey. This Japanese pressing sounds crisp and warm.
Sonny Clark - My Conception
(1979 – Japan, Limited Edition, Blue Note – GXF 3056)

Walter Davis Jr. - Davis Cup
1958 session by Davis, and his only as a leader for Blue Note…which is hard to believe given the quality of the release. Davis didn’t lead another session until…1979.
He’s joined by Jackie McLean (Alto), Donald Byrd (trumpet), Art Taylor (drums), and Sam Jones (bass).

“[Little Big] feels like … a project that I’m going to keep turning to throughout the years. All of us in the band have a feeling of fellowship that we’ve started to build that is very special. The band also feels like an outlet for something I’m after creatively. I feel there’s something here with this particular intersection of different styles of music in the music we’re making. There’s still a lot more to find.” - Aaron Parks

Ike Quebec, Easy Living, 1987 on Blue Note
Though this was first released / issued by Blue Note in 1987, it was actually recorded in 1962 at Rudy Van Gelder’s studio in New Jersey, and represents that early 60s jazz era. It was originally going to be issued as BST-84103 – but the tracks on side one did ultimately make it on Blue Note LT-1089 (1981).
Quebec is joined here by fellow tenor sax master Stanley Turrentine and Bennie Green (on the first three tracks) plus Sonny Clark, Milt Hinton, and Art Blakey (on all six).
Unfortunately both Ike Quebec and Sonny Clark died in January of 1963, three days apart.
My copy via Joe’s Albums in Worcester MA.

Joe Henderson, Mode for Joe, 1966 on Blue Note
This was Henderson’s fifth studio album (as a band leader), joined by: Lee Morgan (trumpet), Chris Fuller (trombone), Bobby Hutcherson (vibes), Cedar Walton (piano), Ron Carter (bass), and Joe Chambers (drums). Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder. Really wonderful Blue Note 60s jazz.
My copy is a 2024 reissue in the Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series – all-analog 180g vinyl pressings mastered […]

Some Saturday night #jazz with #sonnyclark. These early 80s #japanese #bluenote pressings used to be a great value but like all other older BNs they’ve gone up a ton in the last few years. Great record. #jazzrecords #vinyl #vinylcollection #recordcollection @vinylrecords
