Jazz Waltz

Album by Les McCann & The Crusaders

Jazz Waltz is an album by American jazz pianist Les McCann, released in 1963. Musically it explores jazz interpretations of waltz-time (3/4) within McCann's soul-jazz and blues-inflected style, emphasising rhythmic drive, warm piano voicings and improvisation, and marks a phase in his career where he experimented with groove-oriented formats that anticipated his later, more R&B-inflected work.
First released: 1964
