I fell in love with Ahmad Jamal’s rendition of Oliver Nelson’s “Stolen Moments” within seconds of my first ever listen. The Awakening (1970) by The Ahmad Jamal Trio remains a desert island record for me. All respect.

I've been browsing Ahmad Jamal obituaries off and on today, and this one is done with a lot of love

Via @sean_write on Twitter: Sorry to hear jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal has died at age 92. Miles Davis was friends with Jamal and said he was influenced by “his concept of space, his lightness of touch, his understatement". Jamal live on French TV in 1971. #RIPAhmadJamal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAena9F9oSE
