Review 1
Joe Albany (1924 - 1988) was a true living legend. He was Charlie Parker's favourite pianist. He played and recorded with Lester Young. But then came a long inactive period in the 50s and 60s due to his drug problems. It was in the 70s when Albany really began appearing on stage and doing recordings.
"...an album of rare consequence, one which makes a forceful appeal..." (CODA)
"...Let's face it. Joe is the mainman....This is his third LP since his comeback and, for me, it's easily the best..." (Different Drummer) |
