Max Trio Roach Max Roach Trio Featuring The Legendary Hasaan (Translucent Green)
Limited edition of 750 numbered copies on translucent green coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. The Max Roach Trio Featuring the Legendary Hasaan is an album by American jazz drummer Max Roach with pianist Hasaan Ibn Ali, recorded in 1964 and released 1965. This is a classic of it's kind and it is fortunate that it was made, but it is a tragedy that Hasaan would not record again and that he would soon sink back into obscurity This is the only record where you can hear pianist Hasaan. We owe Max Roach this miraculous session where we can discover new pianistic sounds that lay somewhere between Art Tatum and Thelonious Monk, soon wishing we had a whole discography of this to explore. Making this is a rare gem. But beyond the historic nature of the session comes the music and for that the word "legendary energetic" seems more appropriate.
