A stunning Tommy Flanagan session from 1959, finally released as part of Blue Note's celebrated "Lost Sessions" series from Japan. Featuring all West Side Story compositions, this intimate trio recording showcases Flanagan's lyrical piano work alongside Joe Benjamin's versatile bass—switching between plucked and bowed textures—and the melodically inventive drumming of a young Elvin Jones. The interplay creates rich emotional depth across standout tracks including "Lonely Town," "Tonight," "It's Love," "Lucky To Be Me," and "Make Our Garden Grown." A hidden gem that captures the pianist at a pivotal moment in his career. Show more
