Review 1
Duke Jordan established his credentials as pianist during 1947-48 when he was Charlie Parker's pianist. His composing skills did not emerge until the arrival of hard bop in the mid-fifties. Flight to Jordan from 1960 was his first full album as a leader and features the distinctive front line of Stanley Turrentine and Dizzy Reece.
Added to the album's six great Jordan compositions are another original and a trio version of "I Should Care."
