John Hicks: Passion Flower (double CD) |
| Detailed Description |
|
“One of Hicks’ finest recordings,” is the Washington Post’s judgment. A jazz piano giant for 40 years, John could break your heart with a ballad, sweep you off your feet with an anthem, or boot you into boogeyin’ with one of his cookers. And he had the rare gift of inspiring his sidemen to play beyond themselves. Passion Flower pairs his two trio sessions for Mapleshade—including nine of Hicks’ most enduring compositions, breathtaking Ellington, Gershwin and Strayhorn ballads, and brilliantly swinging versions of Thad Jones, Charlie Mingus, and Wayne Shorter pieces (all of whom Hicks played with). The sound is the best of any Hicks on record; Stereophile raves “...as natural and true to life as can be.” Double CD - $30.00; $19.20 when you buy 2 more CDs For more complete track listing, reviews, artist bios and free MP3s from this CD, visit the Mapleshade Records website.
