DONALD BYRD - THE CREEPER (LP)

Donald Byrd The Creeper on LP

Recorded at the Rudy Van Gelder Studio in 1967, but not released by Blue Note until 1981, the aptly titled, The Creeper finds Donald Byrd in an acoustic sextet with Sonny Red (alto), Pepper Adams (baritone), Chick Corea (piano), Miroslav Vitous (bass) and Mickey Roker (drums). The solid set also stands as the jazz trumpeter's last in the hard bop style and in a way the end of an era.
