Kofi (Tone Poet Vinyl Series)

Drawn from sessions in 1969 and 1970, Kofi showcases Donald Byrd at the start of his shift from a top hard - bop trumpeter to a fusion pioneer. Byrd, along with bandmates like Frank Foster, Lew Tabackin, Duke Pearson, Ron Carter, Mickey Roker, and Airto Moreira, explores diverse musical textures. This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition is a gem. Produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from original analog master tapes, it's pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI and comes in a deluxe tip - on jacket.

To enjoy this vinyl, first, make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently remove the vinyl from the deluxe tip - on jacket, holding it by the edges to avoid fingerprints. Place it on the turntable and start the playback. After use, carefully put the vinyl back into its jacket to protect it from dust and scratches. Store it vertically in a cool, dry place to prevent warping. Don't expose it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures as it can damage the vinyl and affect the sound quality.
