The record
Congas are the surprise on the credits -- Robert Collier alongside Lawrence Marable's drums, which gives Wardell Gray's tenor and Art Farmer's trumpet a busier floor to work over. Hampton Hawes is at the piano, Harper Cosby on bass. Six sides including 'Farmer's Market' and 'Lover Man', on a Prestige ten-inch, PRLP 147, from 1953.
