LOU DONALDSON - LOU DONALDSON LD+3 (200g LP)Lou Donaldson LD+3 On 200g LP A perfect pairing from 1959 of fellow Blue Note roster mates that results in one of Lou Donaldson’s finest pure bop sessions. The trio, anchored by pianist Gene Harris, is a cool departure from standard quintets the front man normally had been booking. Lou’s tenor is the focal point, front and center of course but the threesome, completed by Andy Simpkins on bass and Bill Dowdy behind the drum kit, takes a backseat to no one. With ample support and balance, they assist LD in re-defining Tin Pan Alley ditties such as "Blue Moon" and "Three Little Words" into hardened jazz romps while bringing plenty to the table on Donaldson originals such as "Smooth Groove" and "Jump Up." Another installment in the Classic Blue Note Signature LP Reissue Series featuring authentic tip on jackets with film laminate front covers. Mastered and cut on Classic’s ALL TUBE MONO cutting system from tape head to cutter head makes this the definitive version of this LP and possibly better than impossible to find original copies!
