Booker Ervin cut two stellar Blue Note records in the late-60s, including Tex Book Tenor, which had to wait until 2005 for its first release. With a quintet featuring Woody Shaw, Kenny Barron, Jan Arnet and Billy Higgins, the Texas-born saxophonist slices through a set of captivating bandmember originals. This stereo Blue Note Tone Poet Series was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI and packaged in a deluxe tip-on jacket.
