Horace Tapscott began his professional career playing piano for Sonny Criss, Eric Dolphy, and Buddy Collette. In 1961, he co-founded the UGMA (Underground Musicians Association) in the Watts area of Los Angeles, providing support for generations of up-and-coming west coast musicians (alumni include Arthur Blythe, David Murray, Roberto Miranda). Until the late '70s, Tapscott had only appeared on two records after nearly 20 years of making music, but asudden flurry of activity in the late '70s and early '80s produced some excellent small-group albums.
