"Friday Night at the Village Vanguard" is a 1977 jazz album by saxophonist Art Pepper playing with George Cables, George Mraz and Elvin Jones.
Art Pepper played at the Village Vanguard jazz club in New York twice during 1977. The second occasion was recorded and was released as three albums: "Thursday Night at the Village Vanguard", "Friday Night at the Village Vanguard" and "Saturday Night at the Village Vanguard". Further tracks appeared on the album "" and a complete record of Pepper's residency was subsequently released as "The Complete Village Vanguard Sessions".
In the sleeve notes, Pepper says of his own tunes:
My tunes are very difficult to read and interpret. I write down all the parts, and ask my group to play it like it's written for a while and then just use it as a guide and play with their own feelings.
Of "But Beautiful" he says:
Billie Holiday sang this song so beautifully. I've always been influenced by the way a good singer can express something beyond the words of a song. I try to express the quality of the human voice when I'm playing a ballad.
