Free Form is, perhaps, Donald Byrd's finest LP. Featuring a unreal band that included Wayne Shorter on sax, Herbie Hancock on piano, and Billy Higgins on drums, this 1961 set from the Detroit born trumpeter showcases his versatility and adventurous spirit. Equal parts sensitivity and severity, bopping and exploratory, Byrd moves between hard and post-bop and more modal song forms with ease. Includes a bonus track left off the original album but from the same sessions, a lovely Herbie Hancock penned cut!
