Negative Positive
Title: Too weird for my taste.
Review: I get a charge listening to pianists like Oscar Peterson, Junior Mance, Horace Silver (my favorite) Thelonius Monk, Nat "King" Cole and Ahmad Jamal. Jacki Byard in this recording just it too wacked-out in his playing. To me it sounds like an experiment that went wrong. Atonal and awkard it fails to grow on me after a month of listening to it. Each to his own music.
