Ahmad Jamal Trio, The: The Awakening (Vinyl LP)

By 1970, pianist Ahmad Jamal's style had changed a bit since the 1950s, becoming denser and more adventurous while still retaining his musical identity and signature elegance. Jamal’s trio - bassist Jamil Nasser (whose double-timing lines are sometimes furious) and drummer Frank Gant, deliver intriguing performances, showing that Jamal was continuing to evolve.

This Verve By Request Series features a remastered transfer on 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
