Why Some, Not Others?


Recommended Posts

Was listening this AM to the Prestige CD  "Modern Jazz Quartet / Milt Jackson Quintet". For those unfamiliar with this album, Horace Silver is the piano player on the quintet tracks.  Buhaina,  a Silver composition is on this session. I find it an appealing tune, and wonder why Horace never recorded it on any of his Quintet dates? It does appear on  his trio album.  Lord shows it listed on a few very very obscure sessions by others, but that's it.

Though I understand that there is no simple answer, I am often surprised that certain original jazz tunes, seem to be ignored by other musicians, while others get played and recorded frequently.

It might be interesting to hear from some here with jazz tunes they liked, yet have been left in the cupboard after being recorded just once or twice.
