Live at Maybeck Recital Hall, Volume Seven is an album of solo jazz piano performed by John Hicks recorded in 1990. [1] The album was the seventh of 42 piano recitals at the hall released on CD by the Concord label. [2]
The album was recorded in August 1990 at the Maybeck Recital Hall in Berkeley, California. [3] Hicks reported that, for the performance: "I wanted to do some more standard compositions. Playing solo gives me a chance to extend my repertoire and play some songs I don't normally play in a group setting", and "I arrived with a list of songs I wanted to do. But once I started, I picked songs based on the feeling I got from the audience." [3]

It was released by the Concord label. [3] The AllMusic reviewer concluded: "Though not a consistently inspired concert, there are several stretches of truly breathtaking piano playing here, beautifully recorded as usual." [4] The Chicago Tribune commented: "There is a density to John Hicks' solo piano that is rarely apparent in his performances behind others. At times it seems as muscular and lush as McCoy Tyner." [5]
