Requisites

Two Loves is an album led by pianist Duke Jordan recorded on November 25th and December 2, 1973, at Sound Track in Copenhagen, Denmark. My Old Flame, Wait And See, and I’ll Remember April was recorded during the December session. The album was released the following year in 1974 on the Danish label, SteepleChase.

The producer was Nils Winther, the engineer was Ole Hansen, the liner notes were written by Roland Baggenæs and the photography, design, and cover was taken and created by Lissa Winther.

A bebopper of the first generation, this album is evidence of Jordan’s gentle touch, his simply constructed chords, and his preference for medium tempos.
