The fifth and final CD from pianist
Bud Powell's
1962 stay at the Golden Circle in Stockholm has as its high points versions of
"52nd Street Theme"
and "Straight No Chaser" (the latter lasts 20 minutes); on the minus side is a throwaway (and off-mike)
Powell
vocal on "This Is No Laughin' Matter." On a whole, this series is as essential as the Blue Notes but has its strong moments and is worth picking up by lovers of bop piano and the troubled but brilliant
