Byrd Jazz, recorded live in Detroit on August 23rd, 1955, captures the first recording as featured artist for trumpeter Donald
Byrd. This Transition LP is a perfect example of the dynamism of the mid-1950s Detroit jazz scene, as it showcases young
local talents such as tenor saxophonist Yusef Lateef, pianist Barry Harris and Bernard McKinney on euphonium.
With its "mondrianesque" cover, Byrd Jazz (TRLP 5) has been a longtime collector's favorite and is now available in deluxe
edition: 180g pressing, tip-on cover, and a 12-page booklet including the original notes by producer Tom Wilson, and an essay
written by Brian Priestley.
