6 Pieces of Silver

6 Pieces of Silver is an album by the Horace Silver Quintet, recorded on November 10, 1956 and released on Blue Note later that year.

The quintet features brass section Donald Byrd and Hank Mobley and rhythm section Doug Watkins and Louis Hayes.

[4] The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states, "The early Silver quintet was essentially The Jazz Messengers of the year before but already the band was starting to develop a sound of its own.

'Señor Blues' officially put Horace Silver on the map.

"[5] All tracks are written by Horace Silver, except as noted.
