Horace hors d'oeuvre

"Choose this low-priced collection over the two Blue Note "Best of..." collections if you're looking for an introductory Silver sampler 1956-1964. The Blue Note's will cost at least five times as much and still deprive you of some of Silver's stellar songs and recordings ("Moon Rays," "Strollin'," "Ecarole," "Nica's Dream," "Out of the Night")."

A Steal...!

"....every jam on here is a good one. It only whets your appetite for more classic recordings from Silver and Blakey's hard bop of the fiftys and sixties. You'll never get tired of this compilation."

Ok

"very tasty work, the left hand is there.

unless you have a long history of listening to tenor players, only junior cook stands out, not cuz he's the best one on this album but recognizable from some of silver's other work.

hard to tell if harold lang, or wayne shorter are the other tenors, but they are technically crisp and fluid with about 6 balls each."
