Jazz / Hard Bop / Trumpet
One of three Donald Byrd albums from 1967 (the end of his hard bop period), this recording features the trumpeter/leader with altoist Sonny Red, tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Billy Higgins. The six tunes (five of which are originals by Byrd or Red) are all quite obscure and to one extent or another quite explorative. One can sense that Byrd wanted to break through the boundaries and rules of hard bop but had not yet decided on his future directions.Personnel: Donald Byrd (trumpet); Sonny Red (alto saxophone); Hank Mobley, Jimmy Heath (tenor saxophone); Herbie Hancock, Cedar Walton (piano); Walter Booker, Eddie Khan (bass); Billy Higgins, Albert "Tootie" Heath (drums).
The music does swing and highlights include "West of the Pecos" and "Beale Street"; Byrd and Red in particular are in excellent form throughout the date. Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Ron McMaster. Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on May 27, 1963 and January 9, 1967.
