FREDDIE HUBBARD Breaking Point (Blue Note Tone Poet
Series limited edition 5-track LP mastered by Kevin Gray
at Cohearant Audio from the original analogue tapes, plated
and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI. Recorded in May 1964
shortlyafter Hubbard had departed Art Blakey's Jazz
Messengers this five-song set features his new quintet with
James Spaulding on alto sax & flute, Ronnie Mathews on
piano, Eddie Khan on bass, and Joe Chambers on drums. On
the stunning title track alone the band shifts from free-form
exploration into a playful Calypso and back with ease! High
quality gatefold picture sleeve replicating the original
artwork, hype sticker & factory sealed. Essential)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
The Blue Note Tone Poet Series was born out of Blue Note President Don Was' admiration for the exceptional audiophile Blue Note LP reissues presented by Music Matters. Was brought Joe Harley (from Music Matters), a.k.a. the "Tone Poet," on board to curate and supervise a series of reissues from the Blue Note family of labels.
Despite having performed on several of the most revolutionary avant-garde jazz records of the 1960s, including Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz and John Coltrane's Ascension, Freddie Hubbard's own albums tended to hew closer to the mainstream. Perhaps no other single album captures the trumpeter's awe-inspiring breadth of ability and versatility than Breaking Point!, which was recorded in May 1964 shortly after Hubbard had departed Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in order to form his own band.
On this five-song set featuring four of Hubbard's original compositions, his new quintet — with James Spaulding on alto saxophone and flute, Ronnie Mathews on piano, Eddie Khan on bass, and Joe Chambers on drums — moves assuredly across vast stylistic terrain. On the stunning title track alone the band shifts from free-form exploration into a playful Calypso and back with ease. The rest of the program traverses modal jazz ("Far Away"), the blues ("Blue Frenzy"), and stunningly beautiful balladry (Chambers' "Mirrors") to create one of the more remarkable albums in Hubbard's formidable Blue Note oeuvre.
