Funky Pieces of Silver

Horace Silver

Illustration of Horace Silver back in the 60′s. Song for My Father remains one of my all-time favorites. One of the fathers of the Hard Bop. I was asked by Philippe Debongnie to contribute to his blog – Jazz and Draw. I was glad to contribute. Check out the blog and especially if you love jazz. Cool to see different artists riffing on different musicians.  I hope to add a few more pieces to this blog in the future.
