Horace Silver

~ Person

Annotation

A highly influential and early bop pioneer pianist, Horace Ward Martin Tavares Silver was "discovered" by Stan Getz in 1950.
Gifted with a natural funky style, Silver forever changed the face of Blue Note with nearly three decades of explosive sessions.
From his impressive and extensive discography, beginners can possibly start by picking Song for My Father (Blue Note).
