Our Take

Booker Little's "The Complete Albums Collection" is a jazz lover's dream come true. This box set is like a musical treasure chest, overflowing with gems from the legendary trumpet player's all too brief career.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a smoky jazz club in 1960s New York City. Little's smooth, soulful trumpet weaves its way through each track, effortlessly capturing the essence of the era.

The collection showcases Little's incredible range, from the upbeat and swinging "Out Front" to the hauntingly beautiful "Booker Little and Friend." His talent and innovation shine through on every note, leaving you mesmerised and craving more.

But what really sets this box set apart is the inclusion of rare and previously unreleased tracks. These hidden treasures offer a deeper insight into Little's creative process and musical genius, giving fans a glimpse into the mind of a true jazz icon.

So, whether you're a die-hard jazz aficionado or just dipping your toes into the genre, "The Complete Albums Collection" is a must-have addition to your music library. Booker Little may have left us too soon, but his legacy lives on through this incredible box set.

About the artist

Booker Little

BOOKER LITTLE: Jazz's Unsung Genius If you haven't heard of Booker Little, then my friend, you are sorely missing out on one of jazz's best-kept secrets. Little, who tragically passed away before his thirtieth birthday, left behind a legacy that continues to captivate and inspire listeners to this day. Born in Memphis, Tennessee in 1938, Little was a prodigious talent from a young age. His proficiency on the trumpet was nothing short of awe-inspiring, and it wasn't long before he caught the attention of the jazz world. Little's music is a unique blend of avant-garde experimentation and melodic beauty. His compositions are intricate and thought-provoking, yet somehow still accessible to even the most casual listener. It's this delicate balance that sets Little apart from his peers and cements his status as a true musical genius. Despite his undeniable talent, Little never achieved the same level of fame and recognition as some of his contemporaries. But as any true jazz aficionado will tell you, the mark of a great artist is not in their commercial success, but in the lasting impact of their music. So do yourself a favour and dig into the discography of Booker Little. Let his haunting melodies and virtuosic trumpet playing transport you to another world. And who knows, maybe you'll even discover your new favourite jazz artist along the way.
