Originally released as Energy on Capitol Records in the U.S.  This Italian "I Giganti Del Jazz" LP is the version that I own.  

Damn good jazz.

Don Alias shining bright.

Last weekend, I found this Hampton Hawes LP in a local shop.  I was happy to stumble across it.  Been wanting to hear it for a long while.

 

From the cover photo I think this must be a later recording. As much as I know Hampton Hawes died in 1977 at 49 years only. I heard some Hampton Hawes on Electric piano from around 1973 also. I know there are a lot of acoustic purists, but he sounds good on the Electric too. 

I think, withouth that huge afro he looked better. On photos from the 60´s he really Looks smart. Like on "Green Leaves of the Summer"

If I´m sure about one Thing it is that I never have heard about that  bass player. Maybe he is not so well known over here

Only a couple of listings @ Discogs and Hampton Hawes the only "heavy weight" he was playing with ....

:tup All those Most Xanadu albums are worthwhile.

Absolutely.  I like 'em all -- but I think Flute Flight might be the pick of the litter.  Lou Levy brought his "A" game.

He played in several  Mike Vax big band recordings and in a Joe Pass group.

Thanks. That twofer cover definitely got my attention. The original covers might be easily filliped through/over in the used bins, especially the second one. Maybe not the first one, but that layout...
