Dive into the world of jazz piano with Bud Powell's "The Amazing Bud Powell, Vol. 3: Bud!". This 1957 studio album, reissued in 2002 as part of Blue Note's The RVG Edition series, showcases Powell's mastery of the keys with a blend of bebop, hard bop, and cool jazz that's as laid-back as it is virtuosic. Recorded at the legendary Van Gelder Studio in Hackensack, New Jersey, the album features nine tracks, including the lively "Some Soul" and the intricate "Frantic Fancies". The 2001 digital remastering by Rudy Van Gelder ensures that the sound is as crisp and clear as the day it was recorded, making this a perfect addition to any jazz enthusiast's collection. Whether you're a longtime fan of Powell or a newcomer to his work, "The Amazing Bud Powell, Vol. 3: Bud!" is a testament to his enduring influence on the genre.
