The Horace Silver Quintet – Further Explorations (US)

Wonderful Condition, Cover Still in Shrink

For a brief time, tenor saxophonist Clifford Jordan and trumpeter Art Farmer were the frontline of the Horace Silver Quintet. This LP reissue finds the group (which also includes bassist Teddy Kotick and drummer Louis Hayes) performing five of Silver’s lesser-known originals and the standard “Ill Wind.” The lyrical Farmer and the up-and-coming Jordan have plenty of fine solos, as does the influential Silver, whose funky, witty style stood apart from the prevailing Bud Powell influence of the era. Although none of the newer songs caught on as standards, this set (which has plenty of mood and groove variation) holds together very well and still sounds fresh 40 years later.
