Eddie Harris The In Sound

180g High Quality Pressing!
Remastered By Ray Staff at Air Mastering!
Eddie Harris is caught in top form; recorded in 1965 along with Cedar Walton, Ron Carter, Ray Codrington and Billy Higgins.
This is one of the great plattem of Eddie Harris. The piano playing is inspired by what a band: Cedar Walton (piano) and Billy Higgins (drums), Lee Morgan's favorite rhythm section. The underrated but popular tenor saxophonist presents his "Freedom Jazz Dance", which was to become the jazz standard after the album "Miles Smiles Smiles" by Miles Davis.
Harris shines with one of the earlier versions of "The Shadow Of Your Smile", lets off steam on "Love For Sale" and "'S Wonderful" and also plays "Born To Be Blue" as well as his own "Cryin' Blues". Harris is at his best in a quartet/quintet with pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Ron Carter, drummer Billy Higgins and part-time trumpeter Ray Codrington - a gem!
