Complete Live at the Pershing Lounge 1958 is an album by jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal. It contains performances recorded at The Pershing Lounge in Chicago, Illinois, in 1958. Some of the performances were released on the albums At the Pershing: But Not for Me and At the Pershing, Vol. 2.[3]
Recording
The music was played in concerts by the trio of pianist Ahmad Jamal, bassist Israel Crosby, and drummer Vernel Fournier at the Pershing Lounge, inside Chicago's Pershing Hotel, on East 64th Street, on January 16 and 17, 1958.[1]
Reception
The AllMusic review gave the album five stars, stating: "Gambit Records issued all 19 tracks from the Pershing engagements on one CD, bringing before the public a body of work that two generations of jazz heads had gathered piecemeal on Argo and Chess LPs or various partial CD reissues. Tacked on to this historical edition is an edited version of 'Poinciana' released as a single after it became apparent that it had hit potential."[1]
