Acoustic Sounds and Contemporary Records present this new reissue of iconic jazz trumpet player Art Farmer's 1958 Contemporary Records debut, Portrait of Art Farmer. Featuring Hank Jones (piano), Addison Farmer (bass) and Roy Haynes (drums), with this edition pressed on 180-gram vinyl at QRP with (AAA) lacquers cut from the original tapes by Bernie Grundman. It is presented in a tip-on jacket.

Portrait of Art Farmer is an excellent showcase for the trumpeter in the 1950s.
-Scott Yanow, AllMusic.com, 4.5/5 stars

Presentation-wise, Portrait of Art Farmer reminds me so much of Rudy van Gelder's recording of Ike Quebec's Soul Samba. The reissue also has much better low level resolution, tone, palpability and low end energy over the earlier, somewhat drier sounding OJC reissue.
