     A 23-track collection of Dorsey classics, beginning with 1935's very Dixieland-ish "Weary Blues" and finishing up with the 1947 recording of his theme, "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You." Featured in the various lineups are the handiwork of Ziggy Elman, Buddy Rich, Louis Bellson, Dave Tough, Charlie Spivak, Bunny Berigan, Buddy Morrow, and vocals from Frank Sinatra, the Modernaires, and Jo Stafford. Decent job of mastering these old 78s makes this budget collection a good value. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide

    All Music Guide Rating: Stephane Grappelli - LIVE IN LONDON

   "On Guy Fawkes Night, 5th November 1973, Stephane and three men who formed the Hot Club of London, took over the stage of London's Queen Elizabeth Hall after the interval in a concert which had opened with the Humphrey Lyttelton band. The music they created is presented here and forms one of the most successful transcriptions of Stephane Grappelli's magic on record. The Hot Club of London Trio echoes but does not copy the music of the pre-war Quintet of the Hot Club of France. This trio has far greater rhythmic freedom and mobility, providing Grappelli with the support he needs, sensing his requirements as far as tempo and key changes are concerned and generally manifesting an aura of professionalism. "
   This time I'm presenting one of the two 5-star Grappelli's albums by the AMG raiting - outstanding collaboratoin of Stephane's virtuosity and ideally supporting him team of musicians, forming at that moment the famous Hot Club of London. Indeed, this album's AMG raiting is not far from true at all - it is one of the best Grappelli's albums I've ever heard.
   "На Guy Fawkes Night 5го ноября 1973 года Stephane и три человека, формировавшие Hot Club of London, заняли сцену в лондонском Холле Королевы Елизаветы после перерыва в концерте, открывшимся группой Humphrey Lyttelton. Музыка, созданная ими, представлена здесь и формирует одно из самых успешных преобразований волшебства Stephane Grappelli в запись. Трио Hot Club of London подражает музыке довоенного Квинтета Hot Club of France, но не копирует её. Данное трио обладает прекрасной свободой ритма и подвижностью, что обеспечивает Grappelli необходимой ему поддержкой, чувствуя его требования, т.к. ритм и замены ключей учтены, и в общем проявляя атмосферу профессионализма."
   На сей раз я представляю один из двух 5-звёздочных альбомов Grappelli по AMG рейтингу - выдающееся сотрудничество виртуозности Stephane и идеально поддерживающей его команды музыкантов, формировавших на тот момент знаменитый Hot Club of London. В самом деле, этот рейтинг AMG данного альбома совсем не далёк от истины - это один из лучших альбомов Grappelli кодга-либо мною слышимых. ]]> Robinzon Wed, 19 Nov 2008 22:46:15 +0300 Christian ESCOUDE, Pierre MICHELOT, Hank JONES, Kenny Washington - Live at the Village Vanguard 1990 http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/christian_escoude_pierre_michelot_hank_jones_kenny_washington_live_at_the_village_vanguard_1990.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/christian_escoude_pierre_michelot_hank_jones_kenny_washington_live_at_the_village_vanguard_1990.html

Most of this set is essentially straightahead bebop with guitarist Mundell Lowe heard in top form on such numbers as "Will You Still Be Mine," "I'll Never Be the Same," "All of You" and "Cheek to Cheek." The wild card here is Dick Hyman who, in addition to piano and some celeste on "The Night We Called It a Day," mostly plays organ. His tone is thin and restrained, almost as if he were playing a cheap electric piano; Jimmy Smith would not make his presence known for another year. However Lowe is the main voice throughout this fairly colorful Riverside quartet date (also including supportive playing by bassist Trigger Alpert and drummer Ed Shaughnessy) which has been reissued on CD in the OJC series. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide]]> pascal.ch Wed, 19 Nov 2008 21:33:54 +0300 Django Reinhardt - Djangology (2CD) http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/django_reinhardt_djangology_2cd.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/django_reinhardt_djangology_2cd.html Django Reinhardt - Djangology (2CD)

A few years after their postwar reunion, Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt and his most illustrious foil and confrere, violinist Stephane Grappelli, recorded perhaps as many as fifty tunes in the space of a couple of months in 1949 in Rome. The Italian rhythm section of piano, bass and drums was probably intended to "modernize" the frontmen's sound, replacing as it did their more Gallic all-string band of the 1930s, the Quintet of the Hot Club of France. But like the two-guitars-and-bass backing Reinhardt and Grappelli pioneered fifteen years earlier, this American-style rhythm section stays out of the way, and violin and guitar are the stars of the show.]]> pascal.ch Wed, 19 Nov 2008 20:56:21 +0300 Sonny Rollins - Newk's Time http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/sonny_rollins__newks_time.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/sonny_rollins__newks_time.html

In his early prime and well-respected, tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins cut this fine hard bop date as one of several late-'50s sessions for Blue Note. The record is part classic date, part blowing session, sporting a mix of engaging head statements and lengthy solos. Rollins takes to the spacious quartet setting, stretching out on taut versions of Miles Davis' '50s concert opener "Tune Up" and Kenny Dorham's "Asiatic Raes." Keeping the swing hard but supple are drummer Philly Joe Jones, bassist Doug Watkins, and pianist Wynton Kelly; Jones was certainly the standout in this well-respected sampling of the best young players of the period, as he oftentimes matched the intensity and ingenuity of the star soloists he backed. Jones, in fact, puts in some career highlights on "Wonderful! Wonderful!" and "The Surrey With the Fringe on Top," just two of many wholly unique Tin Pan Alley song interpretations Rollins has done in his long career. From a career-defining period before the legendary Williamsburg Bridge layoff of two years, Rollins' Newk's Time may not make classic status in jazz roundups, but it certainly is a must for fans of this most important of classic hard bop soloists. ~ Stephen Cook, AMG]]> lex Wed, 19 Nov 2008 15:09:19 +0300 Les McCann But Not Really (1965) http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/les_mccann_but_not_really_1965.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/les_mccann_but_not_really_1965.html Les McCann But Not Really (1965)

Один из лучших ранних винилов Les McCann'а, на котором в стародавние времена мы приобщались к джазу! Потрясающий drive and swing!
Считаю, что более поздние его альбомы, где он поет и играет на Rhodes -гораздо хуже. Прекрасно также играют Victor Gaskin и Paul Humphrey.

Les McCann, much known as his one-and-only soulful piano stylings, already show his fascination on this 1st album on Limelight label.
Rhythm section (Vicor Gaskin on bass, Paul Humphrey on drums) are very steady as well as pulsive, and Les McCann plays a very soulful series of piano - a nice session.

On the booklet inside the gatefold cover, we can enjoy reading how the session was made - the interaction among the producer Jack Tracy, the leader Les McCann, his pals and even his friends in the studio.]]> leonid5169 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 11:22:48 +0300 Blue Mitchell with Johnny Griffin/Curtis Fuller/Wynton Kelly - Big 6 (1958) http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/blue_mitchell_with_johnny_griffincurtis_fullerwynton_kelly__big_6_1958.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/blue_mitchell_with_johnny_griffincurtis_fullerwynton_kelly__big_6_1958.html

В сравнении с медлительной чувственностью блюзов, Savage Rose исполняла свои средневековые литургии очень эффектно, заполняя виртуозно и расчетливо отыгранные экскурсы в классическую музыку пульсирующей роковой ритмикой.

Bassist Red Mitchell and pianist Kenny Barron teamed up for these "Red Barron" duos in 1986; they were reissued on CD years later. Mitchell and Barron swing through five standards (including "The Girl Next Door," "Oleo" and "Namely You") plus the pianist's "Sunshower" and a couple of Mitchell originals. Their interpretations swing, are sometimes intuitive and are full of subtle surprises. Barron has since been recognized as a giant of modern mainstream piano while the late Mitchell's virtuosity was never in question. This combination works! ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide]]> peer57 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 09:58:45 +0300 Chet Baker - Baker's Holiday http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/chet_baker__bakers_holiday.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/chet_baker__bakers_holiday.html

Baker's Holiday finds Chet Baker effectively paying tribute to Billie Holiday with mellow trumpet solos and occasional vocals. Baker is backed by a full sax section and a four-piece rhythm section that includes pianist Hank Jones; Jimmy Mundy contributed the colorful arrangements. His performance of ten songs associated with Lady Day (most of which he had not recorded previously) is often exquisite. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide ]]> peer57 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 09:25:14 +0300 Roy Haynes - Out of the Afternoon http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/roy_haynes__out_of_the_afternoon.html http://jazzbluesclub.com/2008/11/19/roy_haynes__out_of_the_afternoon.html

This splendid-sounding CD reissues a 1962 set from the Roy Haynes Quartet -- which, at the time, consisted of Haynes, Henry Grimes on bass, Tommy Flanagan on piano, and Roland Kirk on saxes, manzello, stritch, and flutes. The album is a delightful mix of techniques in arrangement and performance, with all of the musicians delivering terrific work -- Haynes' drumming is absolutely wonderful here, lightly dancing around the other instruments, Flanagan's piano playing is equally light and delicate, Grimes' bass work is outstanding (during "Raoul" you have a chance to hear one of the few bowed bass solos on records of that era), and there's not much that can be said about Kirk's sax and flute work that hasn't already been said a hundred times, apart from the fact that the flute solos on "Snap Crackle" help this cut emerge as particularly outstanding.
