Undercurrent is an album by American pianist Kenny Drew recorded in 1960 and released on the Blue Note label.[2] It would be Drew's second and last effort for the label, and his last album recorded in the US before his 1961 move to Copenhagen. On the 2007 CD reissue, the album is erroneously given the catalogue number 84101 (Royal Flush) instead of its own 84059.
Reception
The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "This is an extraordinary recording that reveals more upon repeat listenings".[3]
