A legendary session recorded by Bud Powell at the Roost during his golden age.
This album combines his first leader recording from 1947 with a session from 1953. Working with virtuosos like Max Roach and Art Taylor, it marks the perfection of bebop piano, making it an essential piece in jazz history.
The intense, slamming touch of the keys and the overflowing, unrestrained phrasing directly convey the passionate breath of the dawn of modern jazz. This album documents Powell's period, just before he fell ill, when he was at his sharpest and most vital. "Bud's Bubble," with its perfect synchronization of Max Roach's drumming and Powell's high-speed passages, is a textbook example of bebop. This masterpiece allows you to experience the impact that changed the history of jazz piano.
