Albert Dailey

Outside of "That Old Feeling" and a session he co-led with Stan Getz, "Poetry" there is not many recordings of Albert Dailey as a leader out there. Does anyone know of any? I really enjoy his playing.

I've enjoyed this1977 leader-date I'd posted about in the thread/link right above), with Carter Jefferson on tenor (which is actually how I discovered it on YouTube, searching on Carter Jefferson, iirc).

I'd eventually like to find a copy on vinyl, though it's not a huge priority. I've only heard it on YouTube, this far.

I recorded a solo piano performance by Albert at Cafe des Copains, Toronto on April 4, 1984.  13 tracks...nice stuff -- think I'll take it off the shelf right now.  I haven't listened to it in a while.  Albert had a real depth to his playing.

There’s so little of him music out there.  He died way to young.
