This edition comes with newly remastered audio and a two-page insert with exclusive liner notes by Todd Cochran, reflecting on Hadley Caliman and the making of the album. Tenor saxophonist and flutist Hadley Caliman was a key figure in the West Coast late '60s underground scene, whose versatile style made him a first-call collaborator across genres. A fixture of the San Francisco music scene, Caliman's rich tone and musical creativity saw him crossing over into the city's lively jazz and psychedelic rock circles, contributing to recordings by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eGerald Wilson\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMongo Santamaria\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eSantana\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrateful Dead\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. By 1971, he had established himself as a prominent member of this creative community, which led to his signing with Bob Shad's Mainstream Records. Following his 1971 self-titled debut, Caliman returned to the studio later that year to record \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eIapetus\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. The session featured a heavyweight lineup of fellow West Coast fixtures, including trumpeter Luis Gasca, bassist James Leary, and a powerhouse percussion section of Woody \"Sonship\" Theus, Victor Pantoja, and Hungria Garcia. The album's sophisticated modal structures were captured by pianist and composer Todd Cochran.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forced Exposure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45066241179856,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/4201\/4416\/files\/caliman.jpg?v=1783540713","url":"https:\/\/www.grapefruitrecordclub.com\/products\/hadley-caliman-iapetus-lp","provider":"Grapefruit Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
