Notes

recorded in May, 1953, Massey Hall, Toronto
disc one previously released as "Jazz At Massey Hall", Fantasy 6003
disc two previously released as "The Bud Powell Trio with Charles Mingus and Max Roach", Fantasy 86006
gatefold sleeve

In Its entirety, the two sets that made up the memorable and unrepeatable evening in 1953 when a Toronto, Canada, jazz society invited what they considered the five greatest jazzmen of the day to appear together. Aside from the single fact that the trio selections were performed first, this is exactly what took place at Massey Hall.

 "If you attended the event that would come to be called “the greatest jazz concert ever” at Massey Hall in May 1953, the first thing you probably noticed was how many people didn’t attend. The joint held about 2,700 people, and there were maybe 600 or so there." ~Geoff Pevere Entertainment Columnist - The Star
