The bluesy and soulful pianist Horace Parlan is perhaps best known for his work with Charles Mingus on the bassist’s seminal 1959 albums Mingus Ah Um and Blues & Roots. That same year Parlan made his first Blue Note appearance on Lou Donaldson’s album The Time Is Right and in early-1960 he began leading his own sessions for the label with a run of six quintessential hard bop dates recorded over a prolific 16-month period. Following the trio albums Movin’ & Groovin’ and Us Three, Parlan expanded to a quintet for his classic Speakin’ My Piece, and in 1961 capped off his hot streak with the quintet album Up & Down. The 6-song set was anchored by Parlan’s trusty trio with bassist George Tucker and drummer Al Harewood and featured the two new band members in guitarist and Blue Note stalwart Grant Green and brawny tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin. Opening with Ervin’s catchy, hard-swinging number “The Book’s Beat” the set’s other highlights include Parlan’s up-tempo title tune, Tucker’s soulful blues-waltz “Fugee,” Green’s swaggering blues “The Other Part of Town,” and the plaintive ballad “Lonely One” which was written by Babs Gonzales for Billie Holiday.

Blue Note Tone Poet Series

The Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series was born out of Blue Note President Don Was’ admiration for the exceptional audiophile Blue Note LP reissues presented by Music Matters. Was brought Joe Harley, a.k.a. the “Tone Poet,” on board to curate and supervise a series of reissues from the Blue Note family of labels.

Extreme attention to detail has been paid to getting these right in every conceivable way, from the jacket graphics and printing quality to superior LP mastering (direct from the master tapes) by Kevin Gray to superb 180g audiophile LP pressings by Record Technology Inc. Every aspect of these Tone Poet releases is done to the highest possible standard. It means that you will never find a superior version. This is IT.

This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at Record Technology Inc. (RTI), and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.

The taste is amazing
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The creaminess and nuttiness is there and it is the best in a oatmilk matcha latte and the color is amazing and it is not a culinary grade it is ceremonial

Of good quality...
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I believe this matcha to be of good quality. However I am fairly new to Matcha in general. Yet I have tried a few different manufacturers. And this is best thusfar. A vibrant green and firm flavor. Foams properly with appropriate technique. Enjoy.

Decent Matcha! I Recommend!
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is actually not bad, especially for the price! Great color, good taste. Larger size means a little more bang for your buck without sacrificing quality. I find this Matcha equal to others in the same price range but you get a little more. Of course it’s not the exquisite quality but if you are shopping for Matcha in this price range then it’s a great choice. Would buy again.

Amazing quality and value
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This matcha is a great value. I find others in large packaging do not have the best taste, but smaller ones are often so expensive. This one tastes amazing and it's not going to break the bank, especially if you can get it on sale. It blends nicely when using a matcha whisk, and I love making iced protein matcha lattes with it!

Best budget friendly matcha
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I was skeptical, but it turned out to be very good for a budget friendly matcha. It was very smooth and wasnt gritty. Had a slight bitterness but not in an unbearable way. And did not have that strong grassy taste that alot of cheaper matchas have. I will definitely be repurchasing
