    All Music Guide Review

    The Collected Hilton Ruiz features with few exceptions the best of the pianist's excellent period with Jive/BMG, including four albums recorded between 1988 and 1991. The music is vibrant, unrestrained Latin jazz with plenty of solid originals by Ruiz and great Latin spins on Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder" and John Coltrane's "A Moment's Notice." Lew Soloff's trumpet solos invigorate the first four tracks, while Don Cherry guests on the moody hard bop of "Scottish Blues" (taken from 1989's Doin' It Right). Though the compilers left out selections from the first -- and one of the best -- album recorded by Ruiz for the label, 1986's Something Grand, this is still a solid distillation of an essential period for Ruiz. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
