Donald Byrd w/Bunky Green

[Sundog]

I'm trying to find a Donald Byrd record with Bunky Green. In particular the record which contains a version of "My Babe"? That's probably not the right song title. More than likely it's listed as the parent gospel song that "My Babe" is based on. Of course I can't remember that song title. Help!!!!

Bunky Green plays his ass off on this one! Thanks in advance.

It's a Bunky Green record with Donald Byrd (and Jimmy Heath, Wynton Kelley, Larry Ridley, and Jimmy Cobb). Currently available on Collectables:

although that's not the original cover. If that matters.

Thank you sir!

[JSngry]

It's a very good album. Enjoy!

I don't have this particular album but I could never warm up to Bunky's style, plus I have a hard time getting serious about anybody called Bunky.

Your loss, dude. He's coming out of a Cannonball-esque thing here, Heath's showing the first inklings of a Trane influence, and the rhythm section swings like they did back in those days.

Collectables is cheap. Dig in the sofa and see what's there.

Trust me!

I think Bunky's real first name is something like Vernice.

Is that better?

This date is also available on a Fresh Sounds cd called Step High. You have no idea how many times I shuddered while typing this message - FS, Green, etc.

Not a fan of either.
