Clifford Brown And Max Roach - Clifford Brown And Max Roach (Verve Acoustic Sounds Series) Vinyl LP

Recorded in late 1954 and early 1955, this album captures the pinnacle of what many consider the definitive bop group of the era, shortly before Clifford Brown’s tragic passing in 1956. The second of four albums Brown and Max Roach made together, the set features Harold Land on tenor sax, Richie Powell on piano, and George Morrow on bass, anchoring Roach’s dynamic rhythm section. Brown’s compositions—“The Blues Walk,” “Joy Spring,” and “Daahoud”—stand among hard bop’s most enduring works, alongside standout interpretations of Bud Powell’s “Parisian Thoroughfare” and Duke Jordan’s “Jordu.” This Verve Acoustic Sounds Series edition is transferred from analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
