The Horace Silver Quintet (Plus JJ Johnson) - The Cape Verdean Blues - 12" Vinyl LP Record

2015 Blue Note Stereo Reissue on 1LP at 33.3 rpm

"The Cape Verdean Blues was inspired by three different sources. First, Cape Verdean Portuguese folk music from the Cape Verde Islands, which is where my father comes from. Second, the Brazilian samba beat that I learned when I was in Rio from my good friend and drummer Do Um Romao, Third my love for the good old American funky blues"
