Ahmad Jamal - Portfolio Of Ahmad Jamal (1959) [Reel-to-Reel, 7½ ips]

"This portfolio two-reel package was especially created to give each of the many musical faces of the Ahmad Jamal Trio. It gives full rein to Jamal's unusual and unique improvisational talent and it clearly demonstrates the great musical heights achieved by Jamal over a fifteen year span.
Of course, the oter two great members of this trio, Israel Crosby on bass, and Vernon Fournier on percussion, enjoy reputations of their own, each having been acclaimed superb musicians and technicians. Joe Kennedy, a lifelong musical associate to Ahmad, created the stringed arrangements for this exclusive recording."
