Today’s Listen:
Bud Powell -- THE SCENE CHANGES
with / Bud Powell(piano), Paul Chambers(bass), Art Taylor(drums)
Nice foldout with Notes by Leonard Feather(original), and Bob Blumenthal(reissue).
Feather: "He has never ceded his position as the most vital of the original bop pianists; yet there is not a single sentence about him, for instance, in ’hear me talkin’ to ya’, while in the Andre Hodeir book there is a brief dismissal with these words: "circumstances that we won’t dwell on here have prevented Bud Powell from achieving a full realization of his immense possibilities."
"Hear me Talkin’ to Ya" is a book on Jazz written by Nat Shapiro and Nate Hentoff. Andre Hodeir was / is a French Violinist who wrote books on Jazz.
Perfect examples of why you should always read books or articles on Jazz and Jazz players, with the upmost skepticism. Some don’t know what they are talking about, but all have agendas.

Very good album, but, I sort of missed the horns. Without horns, ’sameness’ can creep in. Unless you're Oscar Peterson. :)
