Jazz / Bop / Piano Solo
These informal performances find the great but ill-fated pianist Bud Powell playing a series of relaxed solos in Francis Paudras' apartment in Paris. The recording quality is just okay, and there are some missteps in Powell's solos, but there are also moments of interest, particularly his striding on a few of the numbers. This CD is particularly recommended to Bud Powell collectors.
If you wanted to know what it felt like to live with Bud Powell and have him play for you in your tiny Paris apartment, then this is the album for you. It's low recording and authentic voices heard throughout, this is the quintessential Bud Powell collector's album. He sounds free and adventurous because he had none of the pressures of a club or concert hall date to hinder his playing style.
The reason for these recordings is outlined in a biography of Bud. The story of Bud, as told through the eyes and ears of Francis Paudras, who took Bud in and helped him regain himself, is called Dance of the Infidels. It is a wonderful read, and it provokes a lot of thought and desire to do more research into the music and life of, one, Bud Powell.
