Limited Edition 24 Karat Gold CD! Mastered by Kevin Gray!
Few, if any, international audiophile jazz recordings have maintained the kind of deep and profound influence over techniques and even entire label repertoire as Three Blind Mices TBM6, TBM23, and TBM30. The of-the-moment realism of Yoshihiko Kannaris recordings and production aesthetic of producer and label head Takeshi Tee Fujii have been the benchmark to match. It is to their immense credit that Blow Up, Midnight Sugar, and Misty have yet to be matched, even 40 years later.
Impex, who as Cisco Music has had a long association with Tee and Three Blind Mice, has finally made available these seminal recordings on their state-of-the-art 24K, HDCD-encoded Gold CD for this first time ever.
Kevin Grays careful, unobtrusive mastering provides a near-analog like listening experience while you explore the deluxe book packaging with original photographs from the TBM archives and a new set of essays from NPRs Rhythm Planet host Tom Schnabel.
Impex has given their all to the Three Blind Mice Gold CDs. Giving less for productions with these legacies would be a legendary mistake. Virtuosity and class all rolled into one. A great combination of upbeat blues and mellow grooves!
