An album released in 1964 by Chico Hamilton, one of the leading American jazz drummers, known for his work with groups led by Lester Young, Gerry Mulligan, Count Basie, and for recording outstanding pieces throughout the eras—from cool jazz to mellow fusion—under his own name. The quartet features core members from this period, including Charles Lloyd (ts, fl), Gabor Szabo (g), and Albert Stinson (b). Highlights include A3, an elegant groove driven by bossa nova rhythms, and B2, a bluesy jazz cut where Lloyd’s flute and Szabo’s guitar play beautifully off each other. Throughout, the album showcases Hamilton’s signature touch, blending a subtle Latin feel with consistently cool, refined performances. This is the original U.S. pressing, with the glossy orange-and-black label marked “A product of ABC-Paramount Records, Inc.” and the VAN GELDER stamp in the deadwax.
A1: Man From Two Worlds
A3: Forest Flower - Sunrise
