As the debut release from the legendary Strata-East label, Music Inc. stands as a true jazz masterpiece that showcases the extraordinary partnership between trumpeter Charles Tolliver and pianist Stanley Cowell. Recorded on November 11, 1970, this album demonstrates masterful execution of a singular creative vision for large ensembles, with the core band featuring Cowell on piano, Cecil McBee on bass, and Jimmy Hopps on drums.
This deluxe edition brings new life to a widely regarded jazz classic, featuring 180-gram vinyl pressed at RTI with audio cut directly from the original analog tapes and remastered by Kevin Gray. The release includes a deluxe gatefold tip-on package with newly commissioned liner notes by Syd Schwartz and never-before-seen photos, plus the bonus track "Dave's Chant," making it an essential addition for serious jazz collectors and newcomers alike.
