Johnny Hartman – I Just Dropped By To Say Hello

Description

‘The second of three albums Hartman recorded for Impulse (and following the classic Coltrane/Hartman masterpiece), Hartmans voice is again on display at his best, including Wee Small Hours of the Morning, Charade, and Sleepin Bee. Hartmans supporting cast is nearly as impressive as his voice, with Hank and Elvin Jones (piano/drums), and Milt Hinton (bass) as rhythm section. Kenny Burrell and Jim Hall contribute on guitar across the album and Illinois Jacquet (tenor) performs on five songs. This Verve By Request title is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Third Man in Detroit.
