The Cape Verdean Blues

Album by The Horace Silver Quintet & J.J. Johnson

The Cape Verdean Blues is a studio album by the Horace Silver Quintet, released in 1965. It blends hard bop with rhythms and melodic elements from Silver's Cape Verdean heritage, with blues-inflected piano and strong horn lines, and it is part of Silver's mid-1960s work when he drew on those influences to widen his rhythmic and melodic palette.
