Happy Blues

LP (Item 33562) Prestige, 1956 — Condition: Used

More proof that the Prestige blowing session style worked perfectly for Gene Ammons – as he's right at home on the album's long relaxed tracks, cut in the company of expert players like Art Farmer, Jackie McLean, Duke Jordan, and Art Taylor. Candido's also along for most of the ride, giving the record a nice kick – and the set list includes four long tracks, "Madhouse", "Happy Blues", "The Great Lie", and "Can't We Be Friends".
