Additional Details:

SPAIN - IMPORT, LIMITED EDITION, 180 GRAM VINYL, BONUS TRACK

The complete album + 1 bonus track - limited edition pressing on 180g vinyl. Considered the most accomplished modern jazz harpist, Dorothy Ashby (1932-1986) established the harp as an improvising jazz instrument, beyond earlier use as a novelty or background orchestral instrument. She proved the harp could play bebop as adeptly as the instruments commonly associated with jazz. Presented here is one of her best albums, Dorothy Ashby Plays for Beautiful People (Prestige PR7639 - also issued as In a Minor Groove), a 1958 quartet session featuring venerable players Frank Wess, Herman Wright, and Roy Haynes. Includes the bonus track track: 'Moonlight In Vermont'.
