Vick, Harold

The Caribbean Suite
Rare 1967 deep groove stereo original. “Harold Vick Led Relatively Few Record Dates Of His Own, But This Little-Known Session Is One Of His Better Efforts. Known Primarily For His Work As A Tenor Saxophonist, Vick Also Plays Soprano Sax And Flute On This Mid-'60s RCA Victor Album. Most Of The Disc Is Devoted To British Tenor Saxophonist Kenny Graham's Eight-Part "Caribbean Suite," Which Consists Of Musical Impressions Of Various Islands In The West Indies. Joining Vick Are Trumpeter Blue Mitchell, Vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, Pianist Albert Dailey, Guitarist Everett Barksdale, Bassist Walter Booker, And Drummer Mickey Roker, Along With Latin Percussion By Montego Joe And Manuel Ramos. Like Other Boppers Who Delved Into Afro-Cuban Music, Vick's Arrangements Of This Obscure Suite Work Very Well. He Also Adds A Fine Take Of Charlie Parker's "Barbados" And His Own "Letitia," Both Of Which Fit In Rather Nicely With The Album Concept. Long Out Of Print, This LP May Be Difficult To Acquire.” AMG - Ken Dryden
