"... featuring first-class up-and-coming musicians ... a dream-team front line for Silver's bold melodic statements." - All About Jazz "... Silver turned to his unique heritage for inspiration on The Cape Verdean Blues, a classic mid-60s recording from the master of funky Latin-tinged jazz." - Encyclopedia of Popular Music Pianist Horace Silver was influenced and inspired by the Afro-Portuguese folk music of Cape Verde, his father's native land. Silver had already paid tribute to his father in 1964 with the album and its title track Song For My Father. Cape Verdean Blues followed a year later, continuing to honour his father and his father's homeland. The album features Silver's stellar quintet: trumpeter Woody Shaw, tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, bassist Bob Cranshaw and drummer Roger Humphries, plus guest trombonist J.J. Johnson who plays on half the songs.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
