Highlights include \"Bouncing with Bud\", \"52nd Street Theme\" and \"Dance of the Infidels,\" with \"Un Poco Loco\" being the standout. In addition to being an incredible listen, the album is also credited as being a significant marker in the establishment of Afro-Cuban jazz. Throughout his life Powell battled with alcohol and was frequently institutionalized in psychiatric hospitals. This can partly be attributed to his being beaten by the police when he was twenty. During some stays he received electroconvulsive therapy. After spending nearly 2 years in a mental hospital, he was released in 1953 into the guardianship of \u003cstrong\u003eOscar Goodstein\u003c\/strong\u003e, the owner of the \u003cstrong\u003eBirdland Nightclub\u003c\/strong\u003e. His playing after his release from hospital began to be seriously affected by Largactil, taken for the treatment of schizophrenia. By the late fifties, his talent was clearly in eclipse. \u003ci\u003eThe Amazing Bud Powell\u003c\/i\u003e captures the unique ability of a groundbreaking jazz pianist.
