Max Roach Trio: Max Roach (drums), Hasaan Ibn Ali (piano), Art Davis (bass).
Recorded in New York, December 4 and 7, 1964. Includes original liner notes by Alan Sukoenig. Originally released on Atlantic (SD 1425).
Digitally remastered by Zal Schreiber (Atlantic Studios).
All songs written by Hasaan Ibn Ali.
Pianist Hasaan Ibn Ali only made one recording in his life, this trio set with drummer Max Roach and bassist Art Davis. A very advanced player whose style fell somewhere between Thelonious Monk and Cecil Taylor (with hints of Herbie Nichols), Hasaan actually had a rather original sound. His performances on his seven originals here are intense, somewhat virtuosic and rhythmic, yet often melodic in a quirky way. This is a classic of its kind, and it's a tragedy that Hasaan would not record again and would soon sink back into obscurity. ~ Scott Yanow
