HORACE SILVER レコード& CD

Review: Next up in Blue Note's Tone Poet series of classic reissues is Horace Silver's Blown The Blues away long player, which has been mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes especially for the occasion. It comes on heavyweight vinyl and captures all the glory of the original 1959 album which is known as a hard bop juggernaut. The quintet also featured trumpeter Blue Mitchell, saxophonist Junior Cook, bassist Gene Taylor and drummer Louis Hayes alongside the masterful pianist and composer that is Silver himself. Groovy swinger 'Sister Sadie' is a real favourite here while 'Peace' is a fine ballad.
