Originally issued in 1963 on the Moodsville label--a Prestige subsidiary specializing in cozy, mellow jazz--BLUESY BURRELL is something of a major departure for Kenny Burrell. This disc is not his usual blues-tinged hard bop. It's a much more relaxed session, and features Burrell on acoustic guitar as much as his customary electric model. Further, Coleman Hawkins, early icon of jazz saxophone, plays on half the program. As icing on an already sumptuous cake, Tommy Flanagan, that most classy of mainstream pianists, also appears.
