Junior (SHMCD)
CD (Item 565598) Verve (Japan), 1959 — Condition: New Copy
A groovy early album from pianist Junior Mance – one of the first we've ever seen with him as a leader, and a rare date recorded at the end of the 50s for Verve! The style here is a fair bit like some of Junior's work of the early 60s – a definite soul jazz leaning, but also some more lyrical, lighter moments too – tracks that nicely offset the harder left-hand approach used by Mance on the groovers. The group's a trio – with Ray Brown on bass and Lex Humphries on drums – and tracks are short, with titles that include "Jubilation", "A Smooth One", "Miss Jackie's Delight", "Small Fry", "Love For Sale", and "Junior's Tune".
