Description
KENNY DORHAM Quiet Kenny hails from 2021 and is a SEALED limited edition 180 gram Mono LP issued for Record Store Day. One of the most in-demand bebop trumpeters of the ’40s through the ’60s, Kenny Dorham was known as a distinctive stylist and a fine composer who had a musical message of his own. Dorham played in some of the most popular big bands of the day, led by the likes of Lionel Hampton, Dizzy Gillespie and Billy Eckstine, while in 1948, Dorham replaced Miles Davis in the Charlie Parker Quintet.
Dorham’s ninth album as a leader, Quiet Kenny finds the horn player leading an all-star quartet in a top-notch, 1959 set. Helmed by the renowned engineer Rudy Van Gelder, Dorham, along with pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Art Taylor, perform a selection of originals (including “Lotus Blossom” and “Blue Friday”) and standards (“Old Folks,” “Alone Together”).
Limited to 3,900 copies worldwide, this exclusive reissue boasts all-analog mastering from the original mono tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and was pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI. Quiet Kenny comes housed in a classic tip-on jacket, replicating the original packaging.
