Here a largly unknown Album of Bud . 

It´s live Recordings and Radio Recordings from 1953 and 1955.

As expected , Bud is in top form in 1953, when he still was in full demand of his powers. His Long piano solo on "Big Band Blues" aka "Tiny´s Blues" from Washington is top, also his solo with Dizzy on "Woody´n You". On "Salt Peanuts" unfortunatly the tape runs out after Dizzy´s solo when Bud would start.

And the biggest surprise are the 1955 Recordings. 1955 usually is considered an "un year" for Bud, he made the weakest and saddest Recordings for Verve which are painful to hear, at least many of them (I get a kick out of you, Like Someone in Love, The Best Thing For you is me), or at least "Mediocre" (like the title of on better tune). 

But here he really Plays very fine on a broadcast "Bud´s Bubble" with Oscar Pettiford and Art Blakey, and again an Extended live set also from 1955 with a very fine  "Like Someone in Love", so good that we can Forget the painful recording of it for Verve in late 1954.

Music from the "Magic Triangle"!  :tup 

I wonder why Inner City never licensed Pit Inn for release in the U.S., like they did so many other East Wind records. (?)
