Horace Silver Quintet & Andy Bey - Nica's Dream - Lugano 1988

[franciscofrankgarcia]

Nica's Dream has been recorded and interpreted by so many,many jazz greats,but there has always been a metaphysical chemistry between Horace Silver and and vocalist Andy Bey.

I'm a pianist working on melodic minor harmonies. Thanks for posting this - very inspirational. I'm gonna try to learn it!

@Modes I agree completly with your assesment of Horace's piano playing. We all know he is one of the most prolific songwriters in Jazz. This is probably one one his most covered tunes, and rightly so.

[Modes9]

Horace always writes gorgeous tunes. He also has a gift for playing just what the situaion calls for and nothing more. Always thought Monk was vastly overrated and Horace has been criminally underrated.

[bluedrunkman]

@Modes9 Monk overrated? dude come on it s two things different maybe Horace is underrated and it s a shame but if you say that monk is overrated you just missed something . This is without saying that they are in two different categories thus you can dislike monk's piano style compare to horace's but the importance of monk's harmonic work is far away from ... most jazzman if not all of them (not forgetting evans or ellington don't worry ;)...

anyway...

@Modes9  Too True my friend!

[partidoalto1]

@Modes9 Steady my man. Monk is as great as people think is he is. Horace is underrated, true but Monk broke all the rules and made it an institution. And he was there with the inventors of this music, Bird, Diz and Bud. I love both their composing skills.

[subjulio]

I love Andy's voice!!!!!
