Harry “SWEETS” Edison & Earl Hines Earl Meets Harry (180g LP)

180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl! Pressed at Pallas in Germany!

Pianist Earl Hines and trumpeter Harry “Sweets” Edison perform seven jazz tunes.

“Leave it to European labels like Black & Blue to come up with inspired pairings of musicians who American labels never seem to get around to considering. This 1978 meeting between pianist Earl Hines and trumpeter Harry “Sweets” Edison is a match of masters, covering tunes they had likely performed hundreds of times in their respective careers. Everything seems to gel in the opening track, a strident take of ‘I Cover The Waterfront,’ with plenty of trills by Hines in support of Edison’s brilliant open horn…There is nothing like two veterans at the top of their game joining forces for a record date.” – All Music Guide
