| Red Garland was an American jazz pianist who chiefly played hard bop. Following the Second World War he performed with Roy Eldridge, Coleman Hawkins, Charlie Parker, and Lester Young, but did not become well known until he joined the Miles Davis Quintet in 1955. In 1958 he formed his own trio, which recorded frequently. Among the musicians the trio recorded with are: Pepper Adams, Nat Adderley, Ray Barretto, Kenny Burrell, Eddie 'Lockjaw' Davis, Jimmy Heath, Harold Land, Philly Joe Jones, Blue Mitchell, Ira Sullivan, and Leroy Vinnegar. |
