  1. Horace Silver Quintet, Silver’s Serenade, 1963 on Blue Note

    The quintent here is Silver joined by Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Junior Cook (tenor sax), Gene Taylor (bass), and Roy Brooks (drums). Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs, with Alfred Lion producing. My copy—via Amazon—is another Blue Note Tone Poet Series reissue from 2024. Yes, I realize there are other jazz labels and other reissue series - but so many of these are so good they are hard to resist.

  3. Considering they both have the same intro, which is better: Rikki Don’t Lose That Number by #SteelyDan or Song For Amy Father by #HoraceSilver? #songs #music #jazz #MusicSky

  5. Horace Silver - Silver in Seattle: Live at the Penthouse

    Another gem, unearthed by The Jazz Detective, of a set originally broadcast on radio in 1965, saved in the Penthouse Jazz Club archives.

    It's a really great set, well recorded. And the package includes an excellent liner-notes booklet that's worth the price all by itself.

    Horace is joined by Woody Shaw (trumpet), Joe Henderson (tenor), Teddy Smith (bass), and Roger Humphries (drums).

  7. Zum Tod des Pianisten Horace Silver - "Jazz kann dich glücklich machen"

    deutschlandfunk.de/zum-tod-des

    > Horace Silver war weder schwarz noch weiß. Der Vater, ein Portugiese, stammte von den Kapverden, die Mutter hatte sowohl irische als auch negroide Vorfahren.

    So ein Bullshit damals zum Todestag von #HoraceSilver

  8. This one is new to me, bought it on a whim after reading it was good.

    Despite not recognizing the name of the song, I immediately know I played the first song on this when I was in high school #Jazz band.

    I’m a minute in and I’m immediately hooked. #NoRegrets

  12. The great unknown on this great album is alto sax player Kenny Rodgers (with a D), 19 at the time. There'a hardly any info to find about him. Thoughts?

    Lee Morgan - Sextet

    (1984 – Japan, Reissue, Mono, Blue Note – BLP 1541)

  13. A bit more Hard Bop exploration this afternoon with Horace Silver. I know I’m on safe ground with the Jazz Messengers. Also just listened to Silver’s Blues. Both albums have been accepted into the Hard Bop playlist. #Jazz #HoraceSilver
