  • Description

    180g red coloured vinyl - the complete album + 4 bonus tracks. Although they were not Ahmad Jamal's first recordings, the 1958 Pershing and Spotlite performances marked the beginning of his success. The original album At the Pershing/But Not for Me, taped at the Pershing Lounge in Chicago over two nights in January 1958, included eight of the forty-three tunes played by the trio, which Jamaal personally selected for the album.

    Recorded at the Pershing Club in Chicago, Jamal's third album (including the hit 'Poinciana') was the turning point in his career. His liberal use of silence influenced many jazz musicians, including Miles Davis." - ***** Michael Erlewine, AllMusic

    Contains new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer Brian Morton and by Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine.
