For the first time ever, Roy Hargrove’s legendary 2000 performance at the Bern Jazz Festival is officially released—restored from the original tapes and remastered for audiophile fidelity. This is Hargrove at the height of his powers: bold, lyrical, endlessly inventive. Fronting a stellar quintet of Larry Willis, Sherman Irby, Gerald Cannon, and Willie Jones, he bridges bebop tradition with 21st-century soul/ Long regarded as a highlight by those lucky enough to be in the room, this release captures that lightning for the world.
Roy Hargrove’s contributions to jazz were vast, bridging classic form and modern expression like few of his generation. This long-lost performance is both a celebration and a rediscovery—an essential document of one of jazz’s true voices, now heard in full brilliance for the first time.
Remastered & Cut AAA directly from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab. Pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal Media and housed in Stoughton Old Style® Tip-On Jackets. includes an insert with rare photographs, newly commissioned liner notes, and testimonials from band members and those influenced by his work.
