Happy Moods - Ahmad Jamal

Pavanne
Happy Moods
Ahmad Jamal
Cover Photo: Chuck Stewart
Cover Design: Emmett McBain
Engineer: Ron Malo
Supervision: Jack Tracy
Recored Jan. 20 and 21, 1960 at Ter-Mar Recording Studios, Chicago
Argo LP 662
Chess Producing Corp.
1960

Personnel:
Ahman Jamal - Piano
Israel Crosby - Bass
Vernell Fournier - Drums

From Billboard - March 14, 1960: Jamal has another likely dual-market pop and jazz seller with this offering. The pianist's distinctive approach is heard to strong effect on such gems as "You'd Be So Easy To Love," "Time On My Hands" and "Pavanne." The set is nicely balanced to include mood tunes and swingers. Good Cover.
