Art Farmer - Sing Me Softly of the Blues

Sing Me Softly of the Blues (1965)

This whole album is incredible. Art Farmer’s best with an incredible rhythm section, Steve Kuhn, Steve Swallow and Pete La Roca. I truly think had this been released on Blue Note with one of those slick Reid Miles covers, it would have made a bigger impact in its day and certainly would be regarded as a mid-60s post-bop classic.

The most beautiful blues I have heard with the piercing sound of Art Farmer on the fluegelhorn
