Herbie Nichols Trio - Herbie Nichols Trio (2019) [Hi-Res]

Herbie Nichols Trio is an album by American jazz pianist Herbie Nichols, featuring performances recorded and released on the Blue Note label in 1956.

Although originally unheralded at the time of release Nichol's Blue Note recordings have gained recognition as highly original and ground-breaking compositions and performances. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded Nichols' The Complete Blue Note Recordings, released in 1997, a five-star rating and stated: "The music is virtually unclassifiable, and although largely straight-ahead, sounds unlike anything produced by Herbie Nichols' contemporaries. Essential music".
