New Faces - New Sounds

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Documenting one of the exceedingly rare sessions led by the talented but short-lived pianist, 'New Faces - New Sounds' offers a deep dive into mid-century bebop architecture. Wade Legge demonstrates a highly rhythmic, percussive attack strongly influenced by Bud Powell, backed by an aggressive and tightly unified rhythm section. The album is a prized artifact among enthusiasts of early Blue Note modern jazz recordings.
