Charlie Haden- The Golden Number (Verve By Request Series)

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. In this collection of bass-led duets, Charlie Haden enlists Don Cherry (trumpet/flute), Archie Shepp (tenor), Hampton Hawes (piano) and a trumpet playing Ornette Coleman on the four tracks. Hawes' playing on the Ornette-penned "Turnaround" is the clear straight-ahead highlight of this generally exploratory album. Shop online 24/7 at Darkside Records. Follow us on Instagram.
