Mal Waldron - Impressions (mp3, 320)



This CD reissue brings back one of pianist Mal Waldron\'s lesser-known sessions from the 1950\'s. Teamed up in a trio with bassist Addison Farmer and drummer Al \"Tootie\" Heath, Waldron performs three originals from what he called his \"Overseas Suite\" along with a fine song by his wife (\"All About Us\") and three standards. Waldron\'s brooding Monk-influenced style is heard in its early prime on this excellent release.
