Lotus Blossom – Kenny Dorham

An important Kenny Dorham work that he revisited quite a few times, performing it and recording it in many different settings and arrangements. This may be overwhelming, but we feel it's necessary to show you seven different recordings. Two of them were recorded under the title Asiatic Raes. These different treatments show Kenny's inexhaustible inventiveness. We suggest that you first click on each record jacket and listen to each audio clip. You'll hear why we've had to hit you with all of them at once! We also have Minus You editions from our "K.D. Challenge" version to help you get inside this masterpiece.
