GUARALDI, VINCE - TRIO - - Jazz Impressions Of Black Orpheus (Sealed) (2LP)

Jazz Impressions Of Black Orpheus was recorded in San Francisco in November 1961 & February 1962 with Vince Guaraldi (piano), Monty Budwig (bass) and Colin Bailey (drums). The album contains both original compositions and covers of songs from the 1959 film “Black Orpheus”. It spawned the hit single “Cast Your Fate To The Wind”, which won the 1963 Grammy Award for Best Original Jazz Composition. The album “A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing” exhibits the trio’s growth from the safer jazz style played in their self-titled album Vince Guaraldi Trio. Recorded in San Francisco, April 1957. The members of this trio were pianist Vince Guaraldi, guitarist Eddie Duran and bassist Dean Reilly. Guaraldi began exploring his personal style on the piano with these tracks before truly becoming recognized as a great jazz pianist with Jazz Impressions, his subsequent release.
