Booker Little

Featuring: Frank Strozier, Teddy Charles, Philly Joe Jones, Mal Waldron, Phineas Newborn

REFERENCE: LHJ10110
BAR CODE: -


Despite the extreme brevity of his life - passing away at the tender age of 23 - Booker Little left behind one of the most important legacies of the jazz trumpet; a legacy that has stood the test of time, growing stronger with each passing year. The unrivalled trumpeter is featured here in two settings; a stellar date with the under-appreciated tenor saxophone giant Booker Ervin, and an unprecedented octet session featuring a who's who of Memphis, Tennessee's most celebrated musicians. A rare release by one of the finest and most underrated legends of the jazz trumpet.
