We here at the blog are currently constructing a Horace Silver playlist. While we are mostly drawn to his recordings featuring Joe Henderson, especially The Cape Verdean Blues and Song For My Father, we are forcing ourselves to listen to music from his various outfits and eras. Always the master of a funky Latin number, "Señor Blues" shows off Silver's mastery of a minor blues in 6/8 time. Silver, as always, shines in live performances with his deep blues and percussive piano style.
