Grant Green was truly in the zone on this 1962 soul - stirring album, a spiritual sibling to his 1961 masterpiece Sunday Mornin'. As the 13th album in his first two - year stint with the label, Feelin' The Spirit sees Green reinterpreting six African - American spirituals like 'Just A Closer Walk With Thee' and 'Joshua Fit The Battle Of Jericho'. He's joined by a top - notch modern jazz ensemble including Herbie Hancock on piano, Butch Warren on bass, Billy Higgins on drums, and Garvin Masseaux on tambourine. Joe Goldberg in the original liner notes said Green plays these songs with love in his unique style, blending modern jazz, blues, and gospel. This is a 180g black vinyl, housed in a shiny tip - on gatefold sleeve. It's part of Blue Note's Tone Poet 180g audiophile remaster series, cut from original tapes in an all - analog process. It's a limited edition with the original release in 1963 and re - issued by Blue Note Records in 2022.
To use this vinyl LP, first make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently remove the vinyl from the sleeve, holding it by the edges to avoid fingerprints. Place it on the turntable and lower the needle carefully onto the starting groove. Enjoy the rich, warm sound of Grant Green's music. When you're done, lift the needle gently and return it to its rest. Always handle the vinyl with clean hands to prevent dirt and oils from getting on the surface. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place, standing it upright to avoid warping. Don't expose it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. And be extra careful with the limited - edition sleeve; keep it in good shape to preserve the collectible value of the album.
