Album Notes & Community Reviews

Combining his early 1952 trio dates with a 1953 rhythm-heavy session featuring Art Blakey and Sabu Martinez, this Blue Note compilation tracks the pianist's early evolution. The fusion of bebop agility with afro-cuban polyrhythms strongly previews the hard bop sound.
