His recordings with Woody Shaw are just amazing. Two brilliant players at the absolute top of their game. Freddie was a sideman on a McCoy Tyner recording in the late 70's. I think it's called Together. His solo on Nubia is burning from beginning to end, I swear that smoke must have been coming out the bell at the end.
High Energy is another one I like. I had the opportunity to hear Freddie twice in person. One in 81-82 at a small club in Boston and the other in Stamford Ct. I don't remember the year but it was the night before the Bears won the Super Bowl. He just killed all night. Got to meet him at the Boston date. A really nice, friendly,funny guy. Got to meet Woody as well, very good guy too. They both left us way too soon.

Don't forget Echoes of an Era with Chaka Khan, Chick Corea, Joe Henderson and on a lighter note there was always Billy Joel 52nd Street and Jeff Lorber's Water Sign.

Really like him on Joe Farrell's sonic Text. Have heard him (radio) on some Stanley Turrentine, but not sure which recordings.

Some of my favorite Freddie recordings are him in the early 1960s. Some good ones I can think of are Dexter Gordon's record "doin' alright", Hub Tones, The Body and Soul of Freddie Hubbard, The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard, a Sam rivers record called "Contour", Herbie Hancock's "Empyrean Isles". Theres a bunch of great bootlegs of him and videos in the early 60s playing with Art Blakey. So many great recordings of Hub!!

Billy Joel's Zanzibar, with Freddie soloing...


Link

Interesting backstory behind Billy's album cover: photo was taken the summer of '78, outside the service entrance at street level, downstairs from A&R Recording Studios, once located at 799 7th Avenue, at 52nd Street, New York City, when Billy recorded his fifth album for Columbia Records.

Regarding the trumpet Billy is holding in the photos, Billy offers this correction of a long-standing myth. Because of his amazing trumpet solo, legend has it that the trumpet Billy holds in the photos was Freddie Hubbard’s, offered as a prop after or before Freddie’s timeless solo on “Zanzibar.” Could this be true? Billy was asked for verification, and here’s his reply: ”Freddie Hubbard wouldn't let anyone touch his trumpet with a ten foot pole! That was an old horn that Phil Ramone had laying around.” Myth busted.

Carl Fischer, who plays horns in the Billy Joel Band, identified the old horn as a Conn Constellation. “It’s a very distinctive shape,” Carl said. “Maynard Ferguson gave me his 1961 Conn Constellation when I played in his band. It’s one of my prized possessions.”

One of my all time fav is the one with the orchestra arr by Wayne, 'The body & the Soul'. What a sound, what an inspired spirit! You have to check ALL this Blue Note stuff as a leader or sideman with Shorter, Hancock, Blakey etc..

you should also check our man vs other absolute masters like:

- Lee Morgan in 'The Night of the cookers/ Live at club La Marchal' 1965
- Woody Shaw in 'Double Take' 1985

So much respect, love, and trumpet stunts in these sessions

His playing on Wayne Shorter's album "The Soothsayer" is incredible.

No one ever mentions Super Blue as it is hard to find. Really great with some nice Freddie tunes as well.
