MPS: 180g audiophile vinyl and CD re-issue

The MPS reissue series kicks off in the fall of 2017 with an attractive 'five-pack' of artists who have been central to this label; milestones, rediscoveries and new discoveries, as well as rare and much sought-after pieces are hidden within the recordings from the years 1967 through 1973, with the halcyon (golden) year 1971 smack dab in the middle. The music covers a wide range of styles and formats, ranging from piano masterpieces to vocal jazz on through to filigree guitar work.
