Omnivore

Omnivore Recordings is an independent record label based in Los Angeles, USA. Founded in 2010 by music industry veterans Cheryl Pawelski, Greg Allen, Dutch Cramblitt, and Brad Rosenberger, the label specializes in preserving legacies and music created by historical, heritage, and catalog artists. They are also known for releasing previously unissued and newly found "lost" recordings.

With a mission to honor the rich musical history of artists from various genres, Omnivore Recordings has acquired the catalogs of renowned musicians such as *The Buck Owens Estate*, *Big Star*, and *Game Theory* in 2017. This acquisition further solidifies their commitment to preserving important musical works that may have otherwise been forgotten or lost.

As a leading authority on archival releases and reissues, Omnivore Recordings ensures that fans of these artists can continue to enjoy their timeless music while introducing new audiences to their incredible talent. With a dedication to quality sound restoration and comprehensive liner notes, they provide listeners with an immersive experience into the artist's world.

His 1987 and 1989 releases combined. Includes previously unissued performances from the sessions. New liner notes by producer Jim Exon. Hot off the heels of 'Body and Soul', his self-proclaimed "best album in years," Maynard Ferguson took a severe left turn and reinvented himself in 1987 with 'High Voltage'. By greatly reducing the members of his musical ensemble and creating work within the small-group context, Ferguson once again pushed the boundaries of his genre. Maynard, never one to rest on his laurels, was always experimenting and in the same quality that took Miles Davis from Bebop to Bitches Brew, or Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter's decision to create Weather Report, Ferguson was playing outside the box. Omnivore Recordings, in conjunction with the Maynard Ferguson trust, is once again happy to delve deep into the catalog of this truly legendary jazz great. For the first time in nearly thirty years, all of the recordings that made up 'High Voltage' and 'High Voltage 2' are compiled together with two previously unissued bonus tracks. With liner notes by Ferguson's co-producer Jim Exon, 'Complete High Voltage' is now a fully realized collection . . . a complete document of the small-group sound that Ferguson created during this time. Of course, the smaller the band, the bigger the sound and this 2-CD set delivers. Plug in, turn up and enjoy a different Maynard Ferguson experience!
