  • Description

    180g audiophile vinyl reissue, remastering by Kevin Gray, Cohearent Audio.

    "The best of pianist Horace Tapscott's recordings for the tiny Nimbus label is this 1981 LP which features him in a sextet with trumpeter Reggie Bullen, altoist Gary Bias, tenor saxophonist Sabir Matteen, bassist Roberto Miranda and drummer Everett Brown, Jr. The group stretches out on a couple of Tapscott's originals plus a 19½-minute version of Linda Hill's "Dem Folks." Although the music could be called avant-garde, its use of rhythms and repetition keep the results from being forbidding and the performances have a momentum of their own." - Scott Yanow, AllMusic

    "Dial B For Barbra' is yet another superb album from the L.A based musician/educator for the Nimbus West label." - **** Mark Jones, UK Vibe
