Richard Davis ORIG FRE LP Muses For Richard Davis VG+ 70 MPS 15021 Jazz Hard Bop


Original French  LP released in 1970 on MPS Records. Cat: MPS 15021. Comes in a gloss gatefold sleeve.
Bass virtuoso Richard Davis enlisted a core group of his colleagues from the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra for this 1969 recording. It's a meeting of post-bop titans who not only know how to play, but also how to play together. Davis, himself, was a regular in the Jones/Lewis organization from 1966 to 1972. The set includes smartly written arrangements for septet and sextet, and a fresh interpretation of "Softly as in a Morning Sunrise" from Davis, Sir Roland Hanna (piano), and Louis Hayes (drums). Their reworking of this standard is crisp, angular, and propulsive.

Tracks : Milktrain/ A child is born/ Softly as in a morning sunrise/ What is it?/ Muses for Richard Davis/ Toe tail moon.
