Review by Scott Yanow
For his V.S.O.P. release, veteran pianist Claude Williamson performs six Bud Powell compositions, plus six other standards that the innovative bop pianist enjoyed playing. With the assistance of bassist Dave Carpenter and drummer Paul Kreibich, Williamson displays both the Powell influence and his own approach to bebop piano. The music always swings, has enough surprises to hold on to one's interest, and shows that Claude Williamson (who has been somewhat underrated through the years) was still in prime form four decades after his initial recognition. Highlights of this easily recommended disc include "Hallucinations," "Bud's Bubble," "Parisian Thoroughfare," and "Bouncing With Bud."

Para su lanzamiento V.S.O.P., el veterano pianista Claude Williamson interpreta seis composiciones de Bud Powell, además de otros seis estándares que el innovador pianista de bop disfrutaba tocando. Con la ayuda del bajista Dave Carpenter y el baterista Paul Kreibich, Williamson muestra tanto la influencia de Powell como su propio enfoque del piano bebop. La música siempre se balancea, tiene suficientes sorpresas para mantener el interés, y muestra que Claude Williamson (que ha sido algo infravalorado a lo largo de los años) seguía en plena forma cuatro décadas después de su reconocimiento inicial. Lo más destacado de este disco, fácilmente recomendable, incluye "Hallucinations", "Bud's Bubble", "Parisian Thoroughfare" y "Bouncing With Bud".
