Description
Limited edition reissue of Red Rodney Quartet's 1988 SteepleChase LP, featuring pianist Butch Lacey, bassist Hugo Rasmussen and drummer Aage Tanggaard, with Red Rodney leading on flugelhorn.
American trumpeter Red Rodney (1927-1994) came into the spotlight with his legendary firecracker pace and pitch late '40s and was hired by Charlie Parker to replace Miles Davis in his quintet (1949-1951). In spite of his turbulent life during the '60s and '70s Rodney made a comeback to the world scene in the '80s. For the interesting details, do read Chris Sheridan's liner notes included in this
release.
This 1988 studio recording took place in Copenhagen, Denmark where he lived a couple of years.
"This excellent and restrained session will bring more accolades to this little giant of jazz, Red Rodney." - Jazznews
"Here is one of the most listenable Red Rodney records to come along in years...It is Rodney's superbly lyrical work that makes this an essential record." - Jazz Journal
