One of the few truly strong and original jazz LPs on the Charlie Parker label – and one of the best early sides by Slide! Despite a hokey title and cover image, the record really has a lot going on – and shows Slide stretching out as an arranger from his days at Atlantic. Side one ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
An overlooked bit of piano genius from the 60s – a split LP with great work from both artists!
