A Fickle Sonance (Blue Note 80): Vinyl LP

Recorded in October 1961, A Fickle Sonance is a classic hard bop album by Jackie McLean. The title - track's intro with dissonances hints at the avant - garde explorations McLean would pursue later. The amazing quintet, with Tommy Turrentine on trumpet, Sonny Clark on piano, Butch Warren on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums, delivers a top - notch performance. The album starts with the fun 'Five Will Get You Ten', a song Clark is said to have found at Thelonious Monk's place. Reid Miles' dramatic cropping of Francis Wolff's photo of McLean on the cover makes it truly memorable. This Blue Note 80 Vinyl Edition is all - analog.

When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt or oils on the record, which can affect the sound quality. Store the LP in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent warping. After each use, return it to its sleeve carefully to protect it from scratches. If the record gets dirty, you can use a vinyl record cleaning brush to gently remove dust.
