• Two complete albums by the Al Haig Trio, ‘Jazz Will-O-The-Wisp’ (originally on Esoteric, then Counterpoint) and ‘The Al Haig Trio’ (Vogue 10” LP) recorded during the same productive 1954 New York studio session with accompaniment by Bill Crow on bass and Lee Abrams on drums.

• As a bonus we have added a further trio track by Haig recorded in 1952, which originally appeared on a rare various artists LP compilation (‘Pianists Galore’ on Pacific Jazz) with Al Haig (p), Harry Babasin (b), Larry Bunker (d). Los Angeles, September 6, 1952.

• “If Al Haig denied himself the high passion of Bud Powell’s music, he was still a force of eloquence and intensity, and his refined touch lent him a striking individuality within his milieu. This album, originally released on Esoteric, is a masterpiece that can stand with any of the work of Powell or Monk.” - Penguin Guide to Jazz (on ‘Jazz Will-O-The-Wisp’)

• Total Time: 75:21 - 22 tracks - Includes 16-page booklet.

Reviews
Jazz Journal - John Chadwick
this CD's a fitting tribute to one of the most gifted - and yet strangely troubled and perhaps insufficiently rewarded - jazz pianists of the latter half of the 20th century.
