Donald Byrd - The Cat Walk [Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series]

Donald Byrd was deep in a groove in 1960 as the trumpeter turned out one hard bop classic after another including The Cat Walk featuring Byrd’s quintet with Pepper Adams on baritone sax, Duke Pearson on piano, Laymon Jackson on bass, and Philly Joe Jones on drums. Theband struts their stuff on an engaging set of swinging originals by Byrd and Pearson.
