Horace Silver Quintet
Hard bop jazz pianist Horace Silver was born on September 2, 1928 in Norwalk,
Connecticut. Although known as one of the world's greatest pianists, his first
instrument was the tenor saxophone. Heavily influenced by saxophonist Lester
Young and pianist Bud Powell, Silver was discovered playing at a club in
Hartford, Connecticut where his trio backed Stan Getz on saxophone, who
subsequently took him on the road with him and recorded three of his
compositions. Moving to New York, Silver got a weekly residency at the famous
Birdland jazz club, where he was signed by Blue Note Records...
