Oscar Pettiford became a major influence on a
number of jazz artists along with fellow bassists
Jimmy Blanton and Charles Mingus. This album
titles as 'Volume 2' or 'Another One', Pettiford's
third album as a leader for the Bethlehem label,
was recorded in 1955. This exceptional date
features the horns of Donald Byrd, Ernie Royal,
Bob Brookmeyer, Gigi Gryce, and Jerome Richardson.
Highlights include the Pettiford-penned 'Bohemia
After Dark', named after the club in Greenwich
Village and acknowledged as a jazz standard,
'Stardust', featuring Pettiford's poetic bass
faintly accompanied by pianist Don Abney, and
'Minor Seventh Heaven', with Pettiford switching
to cello. This is not just a bebop date; Pettiford
had the range to incorporate influences like Duke
Ellington and calypso, creating a full, lyrical
band sound that matched his bass playing.
Pettiford's legacy was cut short after he passed
away suddenly in 1958 in Copenhagen at the age of
37.
Recording: August 1955 in New York City
