Killer piano jazz, and some of the greatest modernist work ever recorded by Blue Note! Herbie Nichols deserves every bit of the rare fame he ever got -- and it's only the paucity of his recordings that has kept him from achieving the status of Monk or Cecil Taylor as an avant-garde forefather. This killer Japanese reissue lets you hear and have some of Nichols' greatest recordings in exactly the format they were originally issued -- a cool little record with an abstract art image on the front, and a concentrated dose of heavy modernist jazz on the record inside! Tracks include "Third World", "Step Tempest", "Dance Line", and "Blue Chopsticks".
