  • Description

    Jazz veterans and kindred spirits Billy Harper, Eddie Henderson, George Cables, Cecil McBee and Billy Hart forge a world-class union on 'Warriors' their auspicious debut for Jazz Legacy. Along with David Weiss and Craig Handy, they are collectively known as The Cookers and their first recording is a potent collection of expansive post bop originals.

    Amongst the tracks is a dynamic rendition of Freddie Hubbards "The Core", two relaxed offerings from Cecil McBee and Billy Harper's signature piece "Priestess", which the saxophonist performed numerous times with The Gil Evans Orchestra.

    Personnel: Billy Harper (tenor saxophone), Eddie Henderson, David Weiss (trumpet), Craig Handy (alto saxophone & flute), George Cables (piano), Cecil McBee (bass), Billy Hart (drums)
