The Three Sounds – Feelin’ Good

Feelin’ Good is an album by jazz group The Three Sounds featuring performances recorded in 1960 and released on the Blue Note label.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars stating “An appropriate title for an utterly charming set from the Three Sounds. The trio works familiar territory on Feelin’ Good, playing a set of swinging hard bop and classy soul-jazz, but there’s a definite spark in the air… It captures the Three Sounds at a peak, which means Feelin’ Good is an excellent example of early soul-jazz”.

The Three Sounds – Moods

Moodsis an album by jazz group The Three Sounds released in 1961 on the Blue Note label.

Reception. The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars stating “The Three Sounds open their signature sound a bit on the romantic Moods. They retain the same light touch that made their early albums so enjoyable, but they add more textures to the mix… on the whole, Moods is an endearing collection of appealing mainstream jazz”.
