Berkshire Blues is an album by American jazz pianist Randy Weston, recorded in 1965 and released on the Freedom label in 1977.
The title track, in the waltz tempo characteristic of many Weston compositions, was written in 1962 and recorded in 1964 by the Randy Weston Sextet (on the album Randy), with Betty Carter later putting lyrics to the tune and performing it under the tile "Ego").




Reception



AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars, with its review by Scott Yanow stating: "Throughout the set, Weston's solos hold on to one's interest, although the overall results are really not all that essential."
