2-CD Set Limited Edition. Includes 24-page booklet. Splendid but ill-fated tenor saxophonist Tina Brooks' recording career didn't really start until 1958, when he participated on Jimmy Smith's LP The Sermon. This release presents all of the quintet studio albums he made under his own name. Due to personal problems, Brooks stopped recording in early 1961 and wouldn't be heard from again prior to his death in 1974, at the age of 42. This 2-CD set contains his complete original albums: Minor Move, True Blue, Back to the Tracks, and The Waiting Game, also featuring such stars as Lee Morgan, Freddie Hubbard, Kenny Drew, Duke Jordan, Paul Chambers, Art Blakey, and Philly Joe Jones, among others. 2-CD SET - LIMITED EDITION - INCLUDES 24-PAGE BOOKLET
