Cannonball's Sharpshooters

Cannonball Adderley

Verve Vault Series edition

Cannonball's Sharpshooters, originally released in 1958, documents alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley leading a quintet featuring cornetist Nat Adderley, pianist Junior Mance, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Jimmy Cobb.

Recorded on March 4 and 6, 1958, at Bell Sound in New York City, the session captures the group just days before Adderley's recording session for Somethin' Else with Miles Davis, placing the album at a pivotal moment in his late-1950s trajectory. The ensemble presents a compact hard-bop program reflecting Adderley's blues-inflected phrasing alongside the harmonic language of modern bebop. The repertoire balances standards, bop vehicles, and originals, including Tadd Dameron's "Our Delight" and Thelonious Monk's "Straight, No Chaser." Adderley's trademark exuberance while leading an all-star lineup of 1950s jazz defines the character of this session.

The Verve Vault Series is an exclusive vinyl reissue collection that brings the golden era of jazz back to life. Curated by Verve Label Group and UMe, this series offers audiophile-grade pressings of iconic jazz albums. Each release is meticulously mastered from original analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal in Germany.
