Rufus Harley, who was billed as "the world's first jazz bagpiper" emitted his haunting sounds alongside some of the greats of jazz. He was inspired to play the bagpipes after watching a group of pipers play at the late President Kennedy's funeral services. He purchased his first set of bagpipes at a pawn shop early in 1964, several months after the President's assassination. When he turned to bagpipes in the early 1960's, he became a frequent sideman on records and in concerts with saxophonists like Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Dexter Gordon and Sonny Stitt, with the trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie and with the flutist Herbie Mann. He adapted the bagpipes to jazz, blues, funk and other typically African American styles, while also acknowledging the instrument's Scottish roots.
This scarce jazz album is a great find—especially in this condition.
*To ensure that the album arrives in the same condition in which it is shipped, this album will be shipped in a protective record mylar.
