"Poinciana" - Ahmad Jamal / Four Freshman

...

Ok, I'm lounging now, lol...

I always loved this song, and I like both interpretations here--Ahmad's got that groove and bounce (Vernel Fournier on the drums!), but I also love the Four Freshmen harmonies...(I got a thing for that 50's era close-harmony thing,lol)

Poinciana -Ahmad Jamal Trio (1958)




Poinciana - Four Freshmen (1952)
