Mildred Bailey – The Uncollected: 1944

A powerful early recording from tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman, Look for the Black Star captures the adventurous sound of the mid-1960s San Francisco jazz scene. Recorded in 1966, Redman is joined by Jym Young, Donald Rafael Garrett, Ian “Sven” Anderson and Eddie Moore for an exploratory set bridging post-bop and free jazz. This Arista/Freedom promotional copy is especially appealing for collectors of avant-garde jazz and Redman’s work.
