Ethan Iverson with the Umbria Jazz Orchestra - Bud Powell in the 21st Century
Sunnyside (2021), via Qobuz

This is great: a mix of Bud Powell tunes and Iverson compositions with his quintet, with some great arrangements for big band. Makes for a great mix of classic bebop and modern jazz. Sound is excellent.

He was, despite his weak and diseased condition (osteogenesis imperfecta), such a great piano player...

Some very good tracks which show his talent.

A recommendation in the last Stereophile... But we don't really like it.

The Allmusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 4½ stars and states "Blowin' the Blues Away is one of Horace Silver's all-time Blue Note classics... one of Silver's finest albums, and it's virtually impossible to dislike".

Blue Mitchell — trumpet except
Junior Cook — tenor saxophone
Horace Silver — piano
Eugene Taylor — bass
Louis Hayes — drums

Excellent, and now even in 24/192.

I just made a comparison with my CD.
The 24/192 stream sounds a bit more natural and clearer.

A classic!

When I hear this, I realise once again he's of the absolute best piano players in jazz history.

This is just so pleasing to my entire person...

Recorded in '53.
One of my favourite trumpet players of all times.

Short - 23' - but good!
