Don Pullen Quartet Don Pullen/London,UK 1992 & more

Don Pullen, the great pianist known for his work with the Charles Mingus Group, has developed a wide variety of unique styles that are difficult to categorize, from blues to bebop, modern, and free jazz. This is a title that will delight jazz fans! Born into a musical family, he learned piano from an early age and acquired all kinds of playing styles from classical to church music, blues, and jazz. The master Don Pullen, who continues to be active in the 1990s, became popular as a tour member of Lenny Kravitz with his powerful and accurate drumming and funky and charming looks. After that, he participated in groups such as Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter, and is currently a regular trio with Cindy Blackman, the wife of Carlos Santana and one of the world’s most skilled female drummers. The bass is not fixed, and on this day, the bass is played by Hillyard Green, who is a very unique and sharp bassist. This powerful 2-disc set features three recordings, coupling Rio’s October 15, 1992 performance at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall and a rare solo piano concert at the Boston Grove Jazz Festival on June 18, 1992, as well as a 1983 performance at Joe Papp’s Public Theater in New York by Arthur Rams Group, featuring Don Pullen, Fred Jackson, Beaver Harris on drums, and Francis Haynes on steel drums, all recorded on the label’s own carefully mastered, high-quality soundboard.
