{"product_id":"pete-jolly-seasons-1","title":"Pete Jolly Seasons","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOrganic, electric, freeform.\u003c\/em\u003e Pete Jolly's \u003cem\u003eSeasons\u003c\/em\u003e is comprised of melodies and textures composed live and without pretense—its grooves contain a complete and divine listening experience that surpasses all others of the era in which it was originally released, coming as close to transcendent musical meditation incarnate as one could possibly imagine. \u003cem\u003eSeasons\u003c\/em\u003e is an unsung masterpiece of ensemble groove and stellar musicianship, equally unsurpassed and inspired in its quiet excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile \u003cem\u003eSeasons\u003c\/em\u003e never had significant commercial success upon its release, it has since amassed a cult following, leading collectors to pay top dollar for copies of the rare record. Out of print since 1971, it has only been reissued once on CD. In his liner notes accompanying this release, Dave Segal puts the album’s massive demand in perspective: “British label owner Jonny Trunk put up an original pressing of the LP for sale for an undisclosed but large sum on Instagram in January 2023, and it sold in five minutes. With \u003cem\u003eSeasons\u003c\/em\u003e back in circulation, maybe Pete Jolly will finally gain the broader audience that his phenomenal skills merit,” writes Segal. “If nothing else, it serves as a valuable lesson to artists: venturing outside of your comfort zone can bring the most interesting, enduring results.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemastered from the original analog master tapes by Kevin Gray at Coherent Mastering, this record not only foreshadows the roots of hip-hop but manages to embody the richness of a full album listening experience that few records can offer. Its timeless appeal is rare—and its dynamic range sets it apart as an album that straddles both the jazz and pop worlds in a way that almost no others can. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the changing and complex colors of \u003cem\u003eSeasons\u003c\/em\u003e for the first time ever since its initial release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" height=\"152\" width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/4oJUgsSPAVTmIozS7GvuYv?utm_source=generator\u0026amp;theme=0\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst ever vinyl reissue of this rare masterpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes new liner notes by Dave Segal interviewing Herb Alpert and Chuck Berghofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed at RTI on Clear Amber Wax \u0026amp; Clear Light Green Wax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginally released on A\u0026amp;M in 1970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeaturing session heavyweights Chuck Berghofer (bass), John Pisano (guitar), Milt Holland (percussion), Paul Humphrey (drums), Emil Richards (percussion) and Herb Alpert (producer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSampled by Cypress Hill, Jay Dee, \u0026amp; Busta Rhymes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nFDR 636 Artist - Pete Jolly\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP Clear Amber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 5 business days for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pete Jolly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53425370628280,"sku":"CI8QRN-LCVK-EO","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/pete-jolly-seasons_Sw1Nm.jpg?v=1777609477","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/pete-jolly-seasons-1","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
