Cleopatras Dream - Bud Powell Trio He recorded this AFTER those bouncers busted his head open at the club and he was given shock treatments in a psychiatric ward, most likely without anesthesia. He was never able to play the way he once did. At his greatest, he was equivalent to a Yo-Yo Ma. Greater, IMHO. This happened in the 1940s, more than 70 yrs ago. Like Miles Davis said, and I paraphrase: They might as well had cut off his hands. He never played the same again, but he still played brilliantly if you have never heard him before. Those recordings from before are are still available.
