recorded in 1986 at Village Vanguard with David Murray, tenor sax, John Hicks, Piano, Fred Hopkins, bass, Ed Blackwell, drums. John Hicks solo's here after Murray's solo, then Murray plays the head to end it.
God rest his soul indeed. John visit me at my house in Puerto Rico. He was invited by Don Pedro institution to play. He was very humble in the way he treated us students. Powerful piano player. My name Tony Renovales. Thanks buddie.
John Hicks on Pharaoh Sander's piece "You've Got To Have Freedom" is just insane. I've never heard anything like it how his hands seem to be playing two totally different pieces. This is just the same.
I think there are references in his solo to that piece actually
Hick is my favourite jazz pianist of all time, unreal that he is so unknown. I mean have you seen his piece on Wiki?
