Recorded between 1951 and '55, these LEGENDARY OKEH & EPIC sessions present the revered, though often underrated, jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal hitting his stride. Backed by Ray Crawford on guitar and either Israel Crosby or Eddie Calhoun on bass, Jamal unveils inventive percussion-less takes on a number of standards, along with two originals, with his spare yet energetic piano work showcased on every track. These are the recordings that directly influenced Miles Davis's late-'50s aesthetic, and this beautifully remastered collection is a reissue of the highest order. For aficionados of jazz piano, this album is essential.

Recording information: Columbia Studios, Chicago, IL (10/25/1951-10/25/1955); Columbia's 30th Street Studio, New York, NY (10/25/1951-10/25/1955).

JazzTimes (p.100) - "It is a microcosmic universe of creative manipulation of form yet also a sincere tribute to a particularly beautiful song."

Hailing from Minneapolis and formed in November of 2002, Amanda Harris (Vocals), Ian Severson (Guitar, Vocals), Eric Rotter (Bass, Vocals) and Joe Rotter (Drums) have created a unique style of aggressive rock that’s been described by numerous fans and critics alike as the “perfect blend of beauty and brutality.” Prior to Gingerjake, Amanda was making a name for herself as a solo artist while Ian, Eric and Joe were members of the now defunct band Two Ton Crutch. When a mutual friend introduced them, the chemistry was instant. They’ve been writing and performing ever since. In only their 7th show, they placed 2nd in the Twin Cities hard rock station's 93X Battle of The Bands. They then went on to play the station's annual 93X-Fest ...
