Description
The complete classic album + 2 bonus tracks - limited edition 180g audiophile pressing. Recorded at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles in August 1954, this was the first Emarcy recording of the legendary Clifford Brown & Max Roach Quintet featuring the great Harold Land on tenor sax, Richie Powell on piano and George Morrow on bass.
Under the direction of two modern Jazz masters, trumpeter Clifford Brown and drummer Max Roach, the quintet shines through a fine set of classic standards, including Edgar Sampson's 'Stompin' at the Savoy' (often wrongly attributed to Benny Goodman), Cole Porter's 'I Get a Kick out of You', plus two Brown-Roach originals.
The New York Times described the Clifford Brown and Max Roach Quintet as "perhaps the definitive bop group until Mr. Brown's fatal automobile accident in 1956".
This LP contains their second album in its entirety plus quartet songs recorded by Brown in France in 1953, added as a bonus.
