The Ahmad Jamal Trio

Love For Sale
The Ahmad Jamal Trio
Epic
LN 3212
1962

From the back cover: Jamal's subtle keyboard structures were first heard with George Hudson's Orchestra insofar as public performance is concerned. A few years later he broke away to form his own group, known as Ahmad Jamal's Three Strings, and with this trio he played throughout the midwest and in New York, attracting considerable attention with his deft articulations. The Three Strings made a number of single records for Epic Records, collection as a best-selling Extended Play disc, and then returned to Chicago. The present group, heard in the first Jamal Long Playing Record, consists of Israel Crosby on bass and Ray Crawford on guitar, in addition to the leader.
