Recensie
A visit to Brazil sparked Horace Silver's interest in his Portuguese roots and led to the magnificent "Song For My Father", his most enduring composition. This album also introduced his new band with Joe Henderson and Carmell Jones and features the classic band with Blue Mitchell and Junior Cook.
A decade into his career as a musician, pianist Horace Silver made the album that would endure as the crown jewel of a catalog of numerous hard bop classics.
"Song for My Father" captured the transition of his quintet with two tracks taken from an October 1963 session with Blue Mitchell, Junior Cook, Gene Taylor and Roy Brooks. A year later, Silver re-entered the Van Gelder Studio with a new band featuring Carmell Jones, Joe Henderson, Teddy Smith and Roger Humphries, an engagement for his father that was inspired by both his Cape Verdean heritage and the music Silver had recently heard on a trip to Brazil
