AMG Review of Timeless

Matt Collar
All Music Guide

Timeless Fats Navarro combines tracks trumpeter Fats Navarro recorded for Savoy during the 1940s. Navarro is largely considered one of the lost geniuses of the bop movement and many of his most famous cuts are here, including "Fat Girl," "Ice Freezes Red," and more. While there are better Navarro compilations, at 18 tracks the Timeless collection is a worthy budget overview.
