Pianist/composer Kenny Drew recorded this wonderful album for Blue Note Records just before departing for Europe and it's a minor classic. All the compositions are by Kenny Drew and the hand picked band sounds like a working band even though they only assembled for this date. The people involved are the "welterweight champion of the tenor saxophone" : Hank Mobley. On trumpet, someone who would define trumpet playing in the 60's and beyond, Freddie Hubbard. Borrowed from Cannonball Adderley's band was one of the eras finest rhythm sections with Sam Jones on bass and Louis Hayes on drums. Drew's piano is in full force here and the dancing quality in his concept is from his West Indian heritage. The album is called "Undercurrent" and was issued on Blue Note and is definitely a joy to hear. Check it out!
