$38.99
Blue Note Tone Poet Series, 180-Gram Vinyl
The high-spirited soloing of trumpeter Donald Byrd and tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley on "Ghana" lets listeners know they are in for an exceptional experience on Byrd In Flight. Recorded in 1960, the sessions also feature Jackie McLean (alto sax), Duke Pearson (piano), bassists Doug Watkins and Reggie Workman, and drummer Lex Humphries. Other highlights include Byrd's ballad tour-de-force "Little Girl Blue" and the hard-bop swingers "My Girl Shirl" and "Lex."
