Donald Byrd - Cookin' with Blue Note at Montreux

A first-ever official release of Donald Byrd's Live: Cookin' with Blue Note at Montreux on what would have been the legendary trumpeter's 90th birthday. In July 1973, Blue Note Records headed to Switzerland to showcase several of the label's stars at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Live albums in the Cookin' with Blue Note at Montreux series followed from Bobby Hutcherson, Ronnie Foster, Bobbi Humphrey and Marlena Shaw, but Byrd's remained unreleased, until now. Byrd's band includes The Mizell Brothers (Larry & Fonce), Nathan Davis, Allen Barnes, Henry Franklin, ant others.
