Tommy Flanagan - Ballads & Blues (Vinyl LP, Enja, 1978) - EX / EX

Tommy Flanagan’s Ballads & Blues is an intimate solo piano recording that places the emphasis firmly on his elegant touch, harmonic subtlety and understated sense of swing. Recorded in Munich in 1978, the album moves through standards and blues with the lyrical precision that made Flanagan one of the most admired pianists of his generation. A beautifully restrained session and an excellent showcase for Flanagan away from the accompanist role for which he was so widely known.
