Hal Galper & John Scofield - Ivory Forest (CD)
"Ivory Forest" is among Galper's best albums as a bandleader, memorable also for its co-leader John Scofield.
Born in Salem, PA in 1938, Hal Galper studied at Berklee College (1955-58) before going on the road with the likes of Chet Baker, Stan Getz, Joe Henderson and the Brecker Brothers. He was Cannonball Adderley's last piano player until the saxophonist's untimely death in 1975.
'Ivory Forest' is among Galper's best albums as a bandleader, memorable also for its co-leader John Scofield, then a 27-year-old with a brilliant future coming up. Sco's feature performance on 'Monk's Mood' is a wonderous highlight of the album. Jazz Podium magazine hailed the Galper-Scofield quartet as 'one of the most vital and inventive bands of the day.'
