Tribute to Andrew Hill - One for One
Rare work by Andrew Hill – recorded in the 60s – but not issued until
this 1975 2-fer package, which then went out of print very quickly! One
session's from 1969, and features Hill with Bennie Maupin, Charles
Tolliver, and Pat Patrick. Another has him and Maupin playing a few
tracks with a string quartet. And the last set (which covers all of the second record) is a
straighter set from 1965, with Freddie Hubbard, Joe Henderson, Richard
Davis, and Joe Chambers. Read complete description at dustygroove.com.


Over nearly half a century, composer-pianist-ensemble leader Andrew Hill gained international jazz renown for his uniquely original music and recorded ouevre, which is by turns dark, fragile, funny, stark, unforgettably tuneful, percussive, insightful, oblique, transparent and mysterious. With the release of Dusk (Palmetto Records), his first album in ten years, Hill reaches another peak, equaling high points of composition and collaboration he achieved in the 1960s with such innovators as Eric Dolphy, Kenny Dorham, John Gilmore, Roy Haynes, Joe Henderson, Bobby Hutcherson, Elvin Jones, Sam Rivers, Tony Williams and Reggie Workman, most often commissioned by Blue Note Records.
