Bud Powell - Swingin' With Bud album
Swingin' with Bud is a studio album by jazz pianist Bud Powell, released in 1958 by RCA Victor, featuring a session Powell recorded in 1957. The album was released on CD by RCA in 1995. All songs were written by Bud Powell, except where noted. Another Dozen" (George Duvivier) – 3:30. Like Someone in Love" (Jimmy Van Heusen, Johnny Burke) – 4:59. Salt Peanuts" (Dizzy Gillespie, Kenny Clarke) – 2:24. She" (George Shearing) – 5:11.
The immortal pianist Bud Powell's two RCA sets from 1956-1957 have been unjustly neglected through the years. Superior to his Verve releases from the time (although not on the same level as his Blue Note dates), Powell is in generally good form on this trio session with bassist George Duvivier and drummer Art Taylor. Highlights include "Like Someone in Love," "Salt Peanuts," "Shaw 'Nuff" and "Oblivion" (the latter is one of four Powell originals on the program). The set is not essential but is easily recommended to bop collectors.
