Decca Records officially reissues 'Trio' (1967) by British jazz composer, pianist, and band leader Mike Taylor, on vinyl for the very first time since its original release. Part of Decca's British Jazz Explosion series, this significant recording has long been sought after on vinyl by collectors and connoisseurs, with original copies now selling for upwards of £1,000.The 180gm limited print LP is housed in 350gsm brown craft board sleeves. It is accompanied by extensive new liner notes (a 12x12 four-page insert) from British jazz expert Tony Higgins, with detailed insight into the extraordinary life of Taylor, who, with every passing year, becomes more of a fascinating character in the development of British jazz and whose story reads like that of a grand opera, embracing exceptional music, high drama, mental illness, drugs and an untimely early death.This new edition has been remastered at Gearbox Studios, London, using the original tapes (or high-resolution digital source files, taken from the original tapes), which were transferred to a Studer reel-to-reel tape machine, then mastered using an all-valve analogue mastering desk.
