Horace Silver - Song for My Father - Blue Note Classic Series Vinyl Record - New and Sealed!
Song for My Father is a 1965 album by the Horace Silver Quintet, first released on the Blue Note label in 1965. The album was inspired by a trip that Silver had made to Brazil. The cover artwork features a photograph of Silver's father, John Tavares Silver, to whom the title composition was dedicated.
The composition "Song for My Father" is probably Silver's best known. As described in the liner notes, this album features the leader's quintet in transition as it features a mix of tracks featuring his old group and his new line-up after Blue Mitchell had left.
Allmusic reviewer Steve Huey praised the album:
"One of Blue Note's greatest mainstream hard bop dates, Song for My Father is Horace Silver's signature LP and the peak of a discography already studded with classics...it hangs together remarkably well, and Silver's writing is at his tightest and catchiest."
This album is widely regarded as a must-have for any serious jazz collection, and Blue Note's own releases are almost always best-of-breed.  Highly recommended.
