Oh Well Oh Well - The Three Sounds

Oh Well Oh Well - The Three Sounds
3:43
Black Orchid, 1964
Written by Gene Harris

This week is all about 1964!

Uptempo, swinging piano jazz.  Just terrific musicianship on display.  The interplay between Harris' piano and the bass and drums is effortless.  I've never heard of this group, but they're just my style.  Sometimes I find the intense, 13-minute bebop horn-based stuff a little much.  Coltrane is great, but maybe not for this particular project.  This is perfect cocktail party jazz.  It's cool, it swings, it's got a piano virtuoso at the helm.
