Recorded across two sessions in December 1960 and January 1961, Groovin' Blue captures saxophonist Curtis Amy and drummer Frank Butler delivering a masterclass in hard bop and soul jazz. The title says it all — this is a deeply groovy, soulful record that showcases the chemistry between two West Coast jazz talents at the top of their game.
This Blue Note Tone Poet Edition was produced by Joe Harley and mastered by Kevin Gray of Cohearent Audio directly from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Record Technology Inc. Reviewers have praised the sound quality as outstanding, and the set is rounded out with a single-sided printed insert featuring additional liner notes, making it a thoughtfully packaged edition for fans of classic jazz.
