Basra is the debut album by drummer Pete La Roca, recorded in 1965 and released on the Blue Note label.[1]

Background and recording

Bassist Steve Swallow recounted that he and La Roca had taken LSD prior to traveling to recording engineer Rudy Van Gelder's New Jersey studio for the session.[2] He also said that Van Gelder threatened to end the session after pianist Steve Kuhn started manually plucking the piano strings.[2]

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "It is strange to realize that drummer Pete La Roca only led two albums during the prime years of his career, for this CD reissue of his initial date is a classic".[3] Шаблон:Album ratings
