In Aug. 1964 pianist
Bud Powell and his friend/guardian
Francis Paudras went on vacation to Edenville on the coast of France.
Powell played at a small club each night in a very relaxed atmosphere. This CD contains some of the performances, four songs with a trio (that includes bassist
Guy Hayat and drummer
Jacques Gervais) and, best of all, three hot numbers that feature tenor great
Johnny Griffin who makes the group a quartet. The recording quality is a little erratic on this set but
Powell often sounds quite inspired.
