Det är otroligt att tänka tanken att Metallicas självbetitlade album (i folkmun känt som "The Black Album") har 30 år på nacken. Men det har det, och här är en remastrad version. Detta var bandets femte album och de gick från att vara hjältar i underground-scenen till att bli världens största hårdrocksband.<br/><br/>Albumet "Metallica" inkluderar singlar som "Enter Sandman", "The Unforgiven", "Nothing Else Matters", "Sad But True" och "Wherever I May Roam" och har sålt i över 35 miljoner exemplar.<br/><br/>2LP - remastrad version som släpps på 180 g vinyl i gatefold-förpackning.

Who are these guys? That's the usual reaction of anyone fortunate enough to have come across this remarkable (and remarkably rare) session from 1963. The last of six albums saxophonist Curtis Amy recorded for Pacific Jazz in the early-1960s, Katanga! transcends not only the rest but plenty of other recorded jazz from that period as well. <br/><br/>Trumpeter Dupree Bolton's brilliant playing here is simply breath-taking in one of his very few recorded appearances during a career plagued with personal problems. Bolton and Amy are joined by guitarist Ray Crawford, pianist Jack Wilson, bassist Victor Gaskin, and drummer Doug Sides on this gem of an album.<br/><br/>Katanga!, a rare gem from the Pacific Jazz catalog will also be released for the first-time digitally. The Tone Poet Vinyl Edition of Katanga! Is not a gatefold but will include a new essay by Thomas Conrad that elucidates the story behind the album.<br/><br/>Blue Note Records' Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series is produced by Joe Harley and features all-analog, mastered-from-the-original-master-tapes, 180g audiophile vinyl reissues in deluxe packaging. Mastering is by Kevin Gray (Cohearent Audio) and vinyl is manufactured at Record Technology Incorporated (RTI).
