About this release
Prestige – PRCD-24246-2 (US)
Recorded April 2, 1968 (group tracks) and July 31, 1969 (solo piano).
Track #'s 2, 4, 7, 10, 13 originally released as "Jaki Byard with Strings!": other selections on "Solo Piano".
Since maximum playing time of a single CD could not accommodate the entire length of the original two albums, it was necessary to delete "Hello Young Lovers" from "Solo Piano".
Thanks to snobb for the addition
