Produced by Bob Thiele, the sessions feature alto saxophonist Charlie Mariano, pianists Roland Hanna and Elvin’s brother Hank Jones, bassist Richard Davis, and Jones on drums. The program offers takes on both then-current and classic pop (“Everything Happens to Me,” “This Love of Mine,” “Feeling Good”) alongside stirring compositions by Charles Mingus (“Love Bird”), Duke Ellington (“Fantazm”) and Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie (“Anthropology”). The title track, of course, pays tribute to Jones’ most famous collaborator – the opening salvo of this defining early statement of his work as a leader with a broad, exploratory vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerve Acoustic Sounds Series titles are mastered from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP) and packaged in high-quality tip-on gatefold jackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Impulse!","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57294727053687,"sku":"5708533","price":32.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/0956\/1910\/files\/1_9b501c28-d894-462a-874c-a6d6bd7d09cf.jpg?v=1783681965","url":"https:\/\/thejazzvault.com\/products\/elvin-jones-dear-john-c-acoustic-sounds-series-180g-vinyl-lp-pre-order","provider":"The Jazz Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
