The Red Garland Trio: It’s a Blue World
Red Garland, piano
Paul Chambers, bass
Art Taylor, drums
Recorded February 2, 1958, this session would sit in a vault until released in c.1970
I first heard Red Garland on Miles Davis 1958 LP “Milestones” - and boy did he sound old fashioned and out of place on that record, after which Miles let him go from his group as pianist. Red is my personal favourite all time jazz musician - this guy is the definition of class, and it’s proven when he departed from the jazz scene in the very early 1960s to care for his ailing mother until her death.
