Jazz Dispensary Top Shelf Series Reissue of Woody Shaw’s Blackstone Legacy on 180g 2LP. Cut from the Original Analog Tapes by Kevin Gray and Pressed at RTI.

The post-bop opus Blackstone Legacy is the seminal debut album by trumpeter Woody Shaw. Originally released in 1971 on Contemporary Records, the groundbreaking album was inspired by the sociopolitical ills of the ’60s. Allmusic called the album, “…a landmark recording, and a pivot point in the history of post-modern music.” This 2 LP reissue was remastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI and housed in a gatefold tip-on jacket.
