Jutta Hipp chronology

Jutta Hipp with Zoot Sims is an album by German jazz pianist Jutta Hipp recorded on July 28, 1956 and released on Blue Note the following year.^[1]

Background

In the liner notes, jazz critic Leonard Feather comments that the album has a relaxed feel, similar to what the listener might experience at a live performance, "... if you happened to drop in one night at Basin Street or the bohemia and found Jutta Hipp sitting in with Zoot's combo."^[2]

Reception

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow and Thom Jurek [ de] states, "as a whole, this recording is so wonderfully executed, one has to wonder why Hipp simply dropped out of the jazz world."^[3]
