Bohemia After Dark

Bohemia After Dark is an album by jazz drummer Kenny Clarke, featuring the earliest recordings with Cannonball Adderley and Nat Adderley. It was released by Savoy Records in September 1955.

The album, and its first track, are titled after the Café Bohemia a restaurant where, between 1955 and 1960, jazz live sessions were held.

Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Although drummer Kenny Clarke is the nominal leader and the other sidemen include trumpeter Donald Byrd, Jerome Richardson on tenor and flute, pianist Horace Silver and bassist Paul Chambers, the impressive performance by the young Adderleys makes this a historic session that has often been reissued under Cannonball's name".
