The Complete Bud Powell on Verve

~ Release by Bud Powell (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Verve 5 CD Box set
Anybody serious at either hard-bop or Powell should dig this.
Casual listeners though might want the great pianist at a lighter dose, possibly with Verve's Genius of Bud Powell or Blue Note's Amazing Bud Powell.
