If he had, he wouldn't have been involved in the car accident, which took his life at the age of 26. What would he have gone on to do? Already at such a tender age, Brown was being touted, by Miles Davis among others, as one of the greatest trumpeters of his generation. His ability to pack so much into a tune without making it sound overcrowded was the hallmark of many of his recordings. This collection includes tunes from the EmArcy label spanning two years before his accident and more than amply showcases his warm style. Although still young, Brown had become a master at both fast-ahead hard bop and slow gentle ballads. Tracks include originals \"Joy Spring\" and \"Daahoud\", and numbers like \"Cherokee\" which he made his own. The quality of backing musicians is also of the highest caliber with the likes of Sonny Rollins and Max Roach reveling in the company of the young legend. \"What ifs\" is a guessing game; \"it happened\" is certainty, and Clifford Brown was a brilliant trumpeter who produced brilliant music. That happened. And this album captures it. --Phil Brett\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 731454360227\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0731454360227\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 731454360227\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43829464236291,"sku":"IW-2XKM-NT7D","price":7.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/41WmxWYbwHL.jpg?v=1679533299","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/clifford-browns-finest-hour","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
