The record
Cut for the small DAN label in February 1971, this session finds Akiyoshi and Lew Tabackin working as a loose, conversational unit with Christie and Heath years before their orchestra took shape. Her piano lines still carry Bud Powell's imprint, even as the writing points toward what came next.
