Mobile Fidelity's Somethin' Else UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP Set Is the Definitive Version of Cannonball Adderley's Landmark

Adderley's Only Blue Note Album Features Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Sam Jones, and Hank Jones: Melodic 1958 Work Includes Reference Versions of "Autumn Leaves" and "Love for Sale"

1/4" / 15 IPS Analog Master to DSD 256 to Analog Console to Lathe

Julian Cannonball Adderley's only Blue Note album, Somethin' Else, would likely forever be famous in music lore if just for the presence of Miles Davis. The iconic composer/trumpeter steps into the role of sideman on the 1958 set, one of just a handful of times he'd make such a move after the calendar passed the mid-1950s. Yet evaluating Somethin' Else strictly on Davis' involvement misses the big picture. Plain and simple, Adderley's jubilant work remains a jazz landmark due to the chemistry of its Hall of Fame personnel, enthusiasm of its participants, and sophistication of its arrangements – not to mention the reference-grade production and inclusion of the definitive renditions of two jazz standards.

Strictly limited to 6,000 numbered copies, pressed on dead-quiet MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI, and sourced from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity's UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP collector's edition pays tribute to the record's merit and includes the bonus track "Allison's Uncle." Offering reference-caliber sonics, it provides a clear, transparent, ultra-dynamic, and up-close view of a cornerstone effort that witnesses Adderley and Davis sharing horn duty alone for the only time in their fabled careers – an arrangement that occurred as a result of Adderley having joined Davis' sextet a year prior.
