Jackie McLean's 1964 album Action showcases a diverse range of jazz styles, from hard bop to avant - garde. The album features tracks like the searing title track, the plaintive ballad 'Wrong Handle', and the grooving 'Hootnan', performed by a quintet including Charles Tolliver, Bobby Hutcherson, Cecil McBee, and Billy Higgins. This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition is a masterpiece. Produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, it's pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI and comes in a deluxe gatefold tip - on jacket.
To enjoy this vinyl record, first, make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the record on the turntable and use the tonearm to carefully lower the stylus onto the lead - in groove. Start the turntable and let the music play. When you're done, lift the tonearm off the record and turn off the turntable. To keep the record in top shape, always handle it by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the playing surface. Store it vertically in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If the record gets dirty, use a proper record cleaning brush or solution to clean it gently.
