The Super Quartet

The Super Quartet is an album by the drummer Louis Hayes, recorded in Italy in 1994 and released on the Dutch Timeless label.

Reception
The AllMusic review called it "easily one of Louis Hayes' best recordings as a leader," stating that "this quartet session ... almost has the flavor of a typical Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers album; although there's no brass, the selections and the hard bop arrangements generally fit".
