romualdo Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I've just read about/discovered Frank Hewitt, a Hard Bop pianist (born in 36) who only recorded for a short time span (late 90's to the early 2000's) before he passed. His recordings are solely on the Smalls label (correct?) - any recommendations Anyone see him perform? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnhrtg Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I have never seen him perform, unfortunately. I have (have had most since they were released) all of his recordings on Smalls. I enjoy them all, they are well worth your time and money. I am sorry I cannot be of help regarding which one you might want to pick first. If I were to listen to them all back to back this weekend I might have some kind of ranking, I guess, but I know I like them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romualdo Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Many thanks I had an inkling there would be previous threads dedicated to him but finding them can be a challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
