VINYL

Double 180gm vinyl LP pressing. On his acclaimed 2005 Blue Note debut Canvas, pianist and composer Robert Glasper proved he had jazz chops in abundance with his acoustic trio featuring bassist Vicente Archer and drummer Damion Reid, while a hip hop sub-context lay just beneath the surface in the album's skittering beats, hinting at future directions that Glasper would take on albums like the Grammy-winning Black Radio years later. The album featured special guests Mark Turner on tenor saxophone plus vocalist Bilal, and presented Glasper's signature sound on 9 original tunes as well as a nod to one of his biggest influences Herbie Hancock with a version of "Riot."

Comes in a gatefold jacket with plain white inner sleeves. The shrink wrap has a 'Made in Germany' sticker on the back. Recorded & mixed May 14-15 & May 24-25, 2005.

"Canvas" is the acclaimed debut album by jazz pianist Robert Glasper, released in 2005 on the legendary Blue Note label. This LP showcases Glasper's innovative approach to modern jazz, blending traditional elements with contemporary influences and subtle hints of hip-hop and R&B. The record features a stellar lineup including Vicente Archer on bass and Damion Reid on drums, as well as guest appearances from Mark Turner (saxophone) and Bilal (vocals). Tracks like "Rise and Shine," "Portrait of an Angel," and the title track "Canvas" highlight Glasper?s lyrical improvisation, technical mastery, and unique compositional voice. Blue Note Records has long been synonymous with excellence in jazz since its founding in 1939, nurturing iconic artists such as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Norah Jones, and many more. With "Canvas," both Glasper?s artistry and Blue Note?s legacy are brilliantly represented.
