Tonight's Jazz Feature focuses on one of the pioneers of Modern Jazz: Earl Rudolph Powell: known as Bud Powell. Powell brought the modern style of Jazz piano to the fore and he is as much of a musical genius as Charlie Parker. Powell became the all pervasive influence on Jazz piano that continues to this day. Tonight's Jazz Feature is his final record for Blue Note Records a label that captured some of his best playing over the years. Powell was set to move to Europe and he entered the studio to do this recording before he left. It was done just after Christmas in 1958 and captures him playing a program of original compositions with Paul Chambers on bass and Arthur Taylor on drums. Powel is in great form and displays his genius and his creativity on this disc. The album is a great send off to several more creative years overseas.
