Notes

First CD reissue produced by Creed Taylor and remastered by the engineer who recorded the album, Rudy Van Gelder.

First reissue on SHM-CD
Original Album & SHM-CD Reissue Produced by Creed Taylor
Recorded, Mixed & Remastered for SHM-CD by Rudy Van Gelder

For the very first time, 20 CTI titles from the 70s were released on SHM-CD format.
And, also for the first time ever, such albums were digitally remastered, in 2009, by the engineer who recorded most of them during the CTI heyday in the early 70s, Rudy Van Gelder, under the direct supervision of producer Creed Taylor.

The booklets preserve the original LP artworks, done mostly by the team of Pete Turner (front cover photos) and Bob Ciano or Tony Lane (album designers), adding new liner notes.

All previous CTI CDs released in Japan in the past 25 years had been remastered at King Studios by such Japanese engineers as Seiji Kaneko and Kuniaki Takahashi, sometimes under Arnaldo DeSouteiro's supervision; and all the CTI CDs released in the USA and Europe by Sony had been remastered by Tim Geelan and Mark Wilder.

SHM-CD (SUPER HIGH MATERIAL CD) was developed by JVC and Universal Music Japan
