Opis wydawcy:
Najbardziej znany ze współpracy z Charlesem Mingusem, pianista Horace Parlan zaczął nagrywać dla Blue Note w 1960 roku. Współpraca rozpoczęła się od znakomitej serii klasycznych hard bopowych nagrań, w tym albumu Speakin' My Piece, nagranego wspólnie z kwintetem, w którym znaleźli się Stanley Turrentine na saksofonie i Tommy Turrentine na trąbce, George Tucker na basie i Al. Harewooda na perkusji.
Seria 180g winyli Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition jest w całości remasterowana przez Kevina Gray z oryginalnych taśm analogowych.

Editor's info:
Pianist Horace Parlan is perhaps best known for his work with Charles Mingus on the bassist’s seminal 1959 albums Mingus Ah Um and Blues & Roots. That same year Parlan made his first Blue Note appearance with Lou Donaldson and in 1960 he began leading his own sessions for the label with the trio albums Movin’ & Groovin’ and Us Three. For his third Blue Note date Speakin’ My Piece, also recorded in 1960, Parlan expanded his trio with bassist George Tucker and drummer Al… Harewood into a quintet with the addition of a frontline horn section featuring Stanley Turrentine on tenor saxophone and his brother Tommy Turrentine on trumpet. The result is a quintessential Blue Note hard bop album, adorned with a playful Reid Miles album cover design, and featuring Parlan originals like the bluesy “Wadin’” and tuneful “Up In Cynthia’s Room” along with pieces by each of the Turrentine brothers and a show-
stopping performance on the ballad “Oh So Blue.”

This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is stereo, all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
