Title:
Whistle Stop
Label:
BLUE NOTE
Format:
LP
Price:
$11.50
Catalog #:
BLP 4063LP
Exact repro reissue, originally released in 1961. "
Whistle Stop
is a high-quality Hard Bop date that is particularly noteworthy for featuring seven forgotten but superior Kenny Dorham compositions, tunes that today's Hard Boppers should be inspired to revive. Dorham is heard in prime form in a quintet with Hank Mobley, pianist Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones."

Title:
Trompeta Toccata
Label:
BLUE NOTE
Format:
LP
Price:
$11.50
Catalog #:
BLP 4181LP
Exact repro reissue, originally released in 1964. "It seems strange and somewhat tragic that this was trumpeter Kenny Dorham's last full album as a leader for he was only 40 at the time and still in his prime. Dorham contributed three of the four selections to the session (Joe Henderson's catchy 'Mamacita' also receives its debut), and his very underrated abilities as a writer, trumpeter, and talent scout are very much in evidence. This modern hard bop quintet set with Henderson on tenor, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Richard Davis, and drummer Albert 'Tootie' Heath served as a strong (if premature) ending to Dorham's impressive career as a solo artist." -- All Music Guide
