I AM LOOKING TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE WHO MAY HAVE HEARD OF, OR HEARD SOMETHING BY HAROLD CORBIN, A PIANO PLAYER WHO LIVE IN PHILLY WHEN HE PASSED AWAY, HIS WIFE’S NAME IS BETTY AND THEY LIVED IN THE MT. AIRY SECTION OF PHILLY. I CANNOT FIND ANYTHING HE DID AS A SIDEMAN OR IF HE HAD HIS OWN GROUP.

Allen55, as far as I can determine, pianist Harold Corbin recorded only once, as the leader of a trio that included bassist Spanky DeBrest and drummer Eddie Campbell. That session was originally released in 1961 on a Roulette LP titled “The Driving New Jazz Piano.” It was reissued in 2007 on an import CD (Toshiba EMI Japan 6176), retitled “Soul Brother,” and is available at Amazon.com.

I hope that helps. – Alan Kurtz, Music Review Editor, jazz.com
