KENNY DORHAM - AFRO-CUBAN (180g 45RPM 2LP)

Kenny Dorham Afro-Cuban On 2 x 180g 45RPM Mono Vinyl

This is a particularly strong set from trumpeter Kenny Dorham, for it has the debut versions of "Lotus Flower," "Minor Holiday" and "La Villa," three of his most rewarding compositions. The first half of the set is Afro-Cuban in nature due to the inclusion of Carlos "Potato" Valdes' conga. Also on the album are trombonist J.J. Johnson, Hank Mobley on tenor, baritonist Cecil Payne, pianist Horace Silver, bassist Oscar Pettiford and drummer Art Blakey. Transferred from the first-generation full track mono masters.
