Complete 1951-1956 Recordings (4 Cd Set)

Barbara Carroll Trio

“This set is a sincere homage to an unfairly forgotten jazzwoman whose style brought a refreshing and individual voice in the tumultuous New York’s jazz scene of the 50s. Barbara Carroll is known among female piano players, as the first to venture into the progressive Bop style that was
especially associated with Bud Powell. These 4 CDs hold Barbara Carroll’s complete trio recordings under her leadership between 1951 and 1956. A successful recoding period which spans sixteen studio sessions and 77 tunes originally released in 6 LPs, 2 EPs and 2 anthologies, cut for two of the best labels in the genre: Atlantic and RCA Victor. The set includes comprehensive biographic notes on 16-page book let, full of historic pictures, original vinyl art work and session details.”

“Simply an excellent jazz pianist.” — John S. Wilson, The New York Times
