This legendary album, which can be said to be the foundation of the ultra-premium album "Better Days" by jazz guitar virtuoso Joe Pass, whose reissued LP version sold out immediately, is finally available on vinyl for the first time!
A definitive jazz-funk album featuring simple yet refined, treasured studio sessions by a trio consisting of guitar, bass, and drums, held before and after the production of "Better Days"!
Recorded in 1971 by renowned jazz guitarist Joe Pass with a roster of top West Coast musicians, "Better Days" is a highly acclaimed masterpiece that appeals to both orthodox jazz guitarists and acid jazz and soul listeners alike. A rare recording from a studio session he conducted around the same time with bassist Carol Kaye and drummer Paul Humphrey, who also participated in "Better Days," has finally been released on vinyl for the first time. The sharp guitar playing, unique to the simple trio formation, makes this a jazz-funk album that fully showcases Joe Pass's skill and talent as a guitarist. Previously released as a bonus track on the CD release of "Better Days," this is the first time it's been released on vinyl/LP format.
