Smithsonian/Folkways BSIN02340650 Williams, Mary Lou - Zodiac Suite Smithsonian Folkways proudly celebrated the 50th anniversary of the original Asch Records release of Mary Lou Williams' work, Zodiac Suite. Performing solo and accompanied by bassist Al Lucas and drummer Jack Parker, Williams crafted these pieces as a series of dedications to fellow musicians born under each astrological sign. This 12-part interpretation of the zodiac was crafted so each movement comprises a set of jazz tone poems. Six alternate takes, mastered from the original acetates, are featured on this reissue. "Irresistible themes...blending sophistication and intimacy." – DownBeat
Previously released in 1945 as Asch 620 and 621 and in 1975 as Folkways 32844.
17 Tracks.
