Jazz
One of the fathers of hard bop, Clifford Brown was an unparalleled technician - he was probably jazz's most skilled trumpet player, period. But he was also a sensitive balladeer, who could spin stories in melody that were as evocative as anyone's - a remarkable achievement for a musician who died at twenty-five. This collection includes a number of true jazz classics, featuring fellow titans Max Roach and Sonny Rollins. |
