JAZZ CD PICK OF THE WEEK - DONALD BYRD



This weeks Jazz CD Pick of the Week is trumpeter Donald Byrd with his Blue Note release titled "The Cat Walk". Another swingin' session from Donald Byrd with Pepper Adams on baritone sax, Philly Joe Jones on drums, Duke Pearson on piano and Lavon Jackson on bass. I recently picked this cd up at Amoeba along with another Donald Byrd cd (Fuego) and they are both winners. Speaking of Amoeba, I have a complaint. Why is the jazz room the darkest room in the store? I mean I can barely read the titles of these cd's when I go there. Oh, I guess that could be my eyes too! HAHA! Anyway, here's one of the many fine cuts from this cd. The one to buy?
Why the Rudy Van Gelder Edition of course.
