Sam Rivers: Dimensions & Extensions (CD: Blue Note RVG) Sam Rivers fourth album for Blue Note, recorded March 17, 1967, is one of his best. A cover and catalog number were prepared at the time, but for some reason this excellent date with Donald Byrd, Julian Priester, James Spaulding, Cecil McBee, and Steve Ellington remained in vaults for another ten years. The album is varied and challenging but always swinging in the hippest way. (Blue Note Records)

 | Sam Rivers: A New Conception (Vinyl LP: Blue Note/ Heavenly Sweetness) The title of A New Conception refers to Sam Rivers' ingenious interpretations of standards on this record. Rivers treats the songs - such familiar items as When I Fall in Love and I'll Never Smile Again - with respect, but never as museum pieces. He knows that if the songs are to remain fresh, they need to be heard in different ways, and he skillfully opens up each composition to contemporary avant-garde techniques.Paris based label Heavenly Sweetness are proud to present this collection of rare gems from the Blue Note / United Artists vault. All the LPs are high quality reissues: Quality sound taken directly from the original master tapes, 180g vinyl, heavy cardboard sleeve and original artwork. (Proper Music)
