Harold Mabern Trio – Kiss Of Fire (Vinil 180g, LP)

A native of Memphis, Tennessee, Harold Mabern carried the musical spirit of his hometown and developed into a respected hard bop pianist since the 1950s, playing with many big names in jazz. „Kiss of Fire” is the first album in a series of releases on Venus Records that appeared between 2002 and 2008.

Mabern plays in a trio with Joe Farnsworth on drums and Nat Reeves on bass; special guest is saxophonist Eric Alexander.

Venus Records was founded in Japan in 1992 by Tetsuo Hara, who had previously worked as a producer for RCA Victor. The renowned label uses a special mastering process called “Hyper Magnum Sound,” which produces a powerful, dynamic sound and is highly regarded by audiophiles worldwide. A quick note: Venus LPs are pressed only once. Once the run is sold out, the title is removed from the catalog and will not be reissued. Collectors should therefore not wait too long to place their orders: the releases from the “Venus Masterpiece Collection” are extremely popular!

We recommend the use of „L’Art du Son” LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
