Delightful solo piano.  Most of the music has a ruminative, "after hours" vibe -- like he's playing for himself, rather than an audience.

And note the album cover photo. It seems to capture McShann at a moment when his glance is turned inward.

Image and music in perfect alignment.

Great ! This could have been recorded About the same period when I was lucky to see Jay McShann live. As much as I remember he was booked with a local Rhythm Section, and at one certain Moment in the last set the female singer Etta Scollo (from Sicilia) sat in for one song…...

this guy was No. 1 influence on Keith Emerson and Jon Lord.

So that's who I blame for my early teenage listening then.  Been looking for the culprit for a while now

Jimmy Smith plays Fats Waller. 60s Mono, Vangelder stamp. Bought on Saturday from Sound records Stroud, Glos. Recommend the shop. Great sounding slab of vinyl.

I like that record a lot. It’s nice to end a weekend with a record like that.

It's quite a change in cover art, isn't it? The vibe of the original photograph is amazing. Then the move to the stark pink/white/black colour scheme of the reissue.

I definitely prefer the original cover.  But the Chess reissue was MUCH less expensive.  ... Plus, the Blakey LP is an added bonus. ;)

I didn´t know Ramsey Lewis played with Max Roach. I only saw him once and I think that was more easy listening Music, as much as I recall…..

I think I'd describe most of Ramsey Lewis' music as Soul Jazz.  But he's in a straight-ahead mode on this Roach date.
