Part of the Timeless Records 45th Anniversary Jazz Series!
Numbered, Limited Edition Translucent Green Vinyl - Only 500 Copies!

To celebrate the 45th anniversary of iconic Dutch jazz label Timeless Records, Music On Vinyl is releasing a series that features albums that are part of the Timeless Records legacy and will be released mainly throughout 2021 and 2022.

American jazz drummer Billy Higgins recorded his second album The Soldier in 1979. Featured on this album are Monty Waters on alto saxophone, Cedar Walton on piano, Walter Booker on bass and vocalist Roberta Davis. Included are recordings of Horace Silver's "Peace" and Sonny Rollins' "Sonny Moon For Two".

Higgins mainly played free jazz and hard bop. He was one of the house drummers for Blue Note Records and played dozens of Blue Note albums of the 1960s. His drums were an important addition to many recordings such as Dexter Gordon's Go! and Herbie Hancock's Takin' Off.

The Soldier is available as a limited edition of 500 individually numbered copies on translucent green colored vinyl and includes an insert with upcoming titles from the Timeless Records 45th Anniversary Jazz Series.
