Holidays in Edenville, 64, also known as Earl Bud Powell, Vol. 8, is a live album by jazz pianist
Bud Powell and saxophone player
Johnny Griffin recorded in
Jullouville,
France and released on Francis Paudras' Mythic Sound label.[1] Recordings from the hotel gig, which ran for several nights in August, were also used on the albums Hot House, Salt Peanuts, and on one release of Blues for Bouffemont.[2]
Critic
Scott Yanow praised the album, noting Powell's "strong form" but taking points off the album's rating due to its poor audio quality.[1]
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings wrote: "the music has a strangely evocative quality, more redolent of a time long gone and a man no longer living than many a professional recording."[3]
Years given are for the recording(s), not first release. Because Powell's discography features albums with the same title, record labels are identified to avoid any confusion.
