Horace Silver - Piano
Art Farmer - Trumpet

Although this edition of Silver's quintet did not last long, Art Farmer and Hank Mobley proved to be two of the most emphatic and mature soloists to interpret the pianist's masterful compositions. Particularly striking are these original versions of "Home Cookin'," "No Smokin'," and "Soulville," all of which have become jazz standards. This album appears on CD in the U.S. for the first time. |
