Song For My Father - Horace Silver




Song For My Father - Horace Silver Quintet (1964)

today is my father's birthday.  he would have been 69 years old.  without him, i would never have developed the love and passion for music that i will always have.  for that, i am forever grateful. 
R.I.P. Jon Evans Manousos  1/21/1941 - 12/10/2005

I listened to this album a lot right after my dad passed away. Though it is a fairly chill jazz album, it's not at all depressing.

Favorite: "Song For My Father" The airy phrasing of Carmell Jones' trumpet is truly stellar.
