Reissue, originally released in 1963. A legendary album by one of the masters of modern jazz drumming. Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in 1963, Cymbalism is among the albums Roy Haynes provided for Prestige's New Jazz series. This session features the drummer leading an acoustic quartet with Frank Strozier (alto sax, flute), Ronnie Mathews (piano), and Larry Ridley (bass). An unpredictable hard bop-post bop transitional album with different colors and moods. From the primary influence of Charlie Parker through a kind of expanded sound inspired by coeval Coltrane. Clear vinyl.
