I think his best is when he plays with Philly Joe Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I love Hope. Probably one of the most underrated pianists, always in the shadow of Powell and Monk. I love these ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 On 11/12/2017 at 2:54 AM, mhatta said: Charles Bell is also an obscure but interesting figure. He sounds like an amalgam of John Lewis and Ahmad Jamal for me. Introverted and still funky. He made a few recordings in the early 60's, then left an active playing career to become a music educator. Drummer Poogie Bell is his son. On 11/12/2017 at 4:16 AM, jazzbo said: I love and cherish those two albums. I have purchased the other Bell that I could find. Color me curious by both the comments and the sample. Think I'll hunt these down. Thanks to you both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhatta Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Gildo Mahones is known as a sideman for e.g. Lambert, Hendricks & Ross (and Bevan), but his leader albums are also quite attractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhatta Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 Roosevelt Wardell is yet another hidden treasure of jazz piano. His only leader album "The Revelation" was produced by Cannonball Adderley, and Horace Tapscott listed Wardell as an early influence.

mhatta Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Herbie Brock is a little-known blind genius of piano. He style is truly eclectic, some Bud, some Shearing and a pinch of Tristano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhatta Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) Bob James is primarily known as a sweet fusion musician, but in his youth he was a hardcore free jazz pianist. He even made an album with Barre Phillips on ESP. Edited December 1, 2017 by mhatta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
