Pianist Hampton Hawes led a trio during the 1960s and 70s that remained popular
without compromising its sound or musical integrity. His phrasing and voicings
could entice or amaze, and he displays great range, rhythmic vitality, and
harmonic excellence during the five selections featured on this 1966 live date
now reissued on CD. Hawes moves from the Afro-Latin feel of Manha de Carnaval to
the brilliant chordal exposition on Spring Is Here and The Shadow of Your Smile,
before concluding with a flourish on Searchin. Hawes is backed by wonderful
bassist Red Mitchell and steady drummer Donald Bailey, who had both been with
him for over a decade. They are not just a cohesive unit, but an intuitive team,
maintaining a communication with him that is amazing even within a genre that
demands it.
