Comes Love by Claude Williamson

Claude Williamson is one of the most fantastic pianists in Los Angeles in the 1950s and 1960s. A superior bop pianist influenced by Bud Powell, he has been busy playing on the West Coast and all over the States.

Williamson worked regularly with Bud Shank, Howard Rumsey's Lighthouse All-Stars, with his own trios, and as a studio musician. He spent most of the 1970s in the studios, although he returned to jazz in the 1980s with his improvising style virtually unchanged.

His piano skills are amazing. The musicians on this fine album are all first rate, and the tunes are all good. 'Round Midnight, the immortal and beautiful ballad by Thelonious Monk, and I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face are among the highlights on this excellent recording.
