About this product
SHM-CD. Jones' gift for rich orchestrations and bossa nova's floating yet supple rhythms were bound to meet on record. With Quincy's sharp arrangements for big band, hot percussion and a breezy brass section, the album finds the perfect balance to make everything swing. Featuring musicians of the caliber of Clark Terry (trumpet, flugelhorn), Roland Kirk (flute), Phil Woods (alto sax), Jerome Richardson (flute), Paul Gonsalves (tenor sax) and Jim Hall (guitar), a baseline quality is assured. The authenticity of the album's South American heritage is reinforced by the presence of Lalo Schifrin as pianist and composer. One only has to listen to the sincere and elegant InchSerenataInch to realize this is not just meretricious bossa-craze cash-in, nor exotica ephemera. Almost every track here is a classic that you're bound to have heard somewhere, not least the now-ubiquitous, frequently sampled InchSoul Bossa Nova.Inch SHM-CD (Super High Material) features more clarity, depth and definition of sound.

Nominated for 12 Grammy Awards, including a win for Jones for Producer of the Year, Quincy's 1981 album 'The Dude' was simply one of the tightest realizations of his talents orchestration, arranging, sequencing, his ear for anticipating new sounds, and ability to assemble an knock-out team of musicians, writers and engineers. Quincy's work bridged, melded and fused genres in ways that others couldn't do and with it's multi-faceted moods and complex arrangements 'The Dude' is a unique composite of bebop, jazz, funk, pop balladry and dance, with shades of African syncopation, quiet storm, and nods to the then-nascent hip-hop scene. Rolling in the pocket with Jones was an elite band of musicians that included Herbie Hancock, Greg Phillinganes and Stevie Wonder on keys, Louis Johnson on bass, Jerry Hey on horn, Syreeta Wright and Michael Jackson providing background vocals, while star-making vocal performances come from Patti Austin and James Ingram.

180-Gram Limited Edition. Bossa nova was in vogue in 1962, and following the of the Stan Getz/Charlie Byrd LP Jazz Samba, jazz record producers were anxious to get their signed artists to jump on the Inchjazz bossa novaInch bandwagon. Another LP titled Big Band Bossa Nova was also recorded in 1962, which featured Stan Getz fronting an orchestra conducted by Gary McFarland. As Mercury's musical director at that time, Quincy Jones was his own producer and decided to take advantage of the opportunity with his Big Band Bossa Nova, which puts together some Jobim classics of the genre and a few original compositions all wonderfully arranged by Jones.
