Horace Silver: Finger Poppin'

Read "Finger Poppin'" reviewed by Samuel Chell

by Samuel Chell
March 31, 2009

Finger Poppin' (1959) followed Silver's most under-appreciated (and perhaps most ambitious) Blue Note date, Further Explorations (1958). The cast is different (though the fiery Louis Hayes remains on drums), but the compositions and arrangements by Silver are no less artful and the soloists as inspired as the frontline of Art Farmer and Clifford Jordan from the ...

On this Toshiba EMI International reissue, the liner notes are in Japanese, the audio is merely “good" (undoubtedly a Van ...

Hank Mobley Another Workout Blue Note 2006 (1961/1985) I can scarcely remember the last time an anticipated “new" release has afforded as much immediate pleasure as this one.
