1970: Gianni Basso Quartet - Jazz Al Centro Pirelli |
Music » Jazz » BeBop » Cool |
 |
|
 Artist: Gianni Basso Quartet Album: Jazz Al Centro Pirelli Label: Ed. ARCOPHON Year: 1970 Quality: MP3, VBR (LP-rip) Size: 64 mb Total time: 48.34 A rare 1970 set from Italian tenorist Gianni Basso – a set that's easily one of the greatest examples of his talents we've ever heard! Basso's tone on tenor is amazing – blown with a sense of freedom that's breathtaking, with odd phrasings and voicings that are extremely personal – almost in the territory of Sonny Rollins on his live classics of the 60s, or Albert Ayler in more inside moments – even though Gianni's never too outside. There's a sense of balance here that's brilliant – as Basso clearly could let loose into much freer territory, yet always keeps his cool and instead fits the tunes with a range of sounds few others players might match. The rest of the group is wonderful too – with Renato Sellani on piano, Giorgio Azzolini on bass, and Gil Cuppini on drums – working with Gianni on titles that include "Gingerbread Boy", "Naima", "So What", "Reaching Forth", and "Sweet Little Maya". © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc. |

1985: Pat Metheny & Ornette Coleman - Song X |
Music » Jazz » Modern Jazz » Avantgarde |
|
|
 Artist: Pat Metheny & Ornette Coleman Album: Song X Year: 1985 Label: Geffen records Format: FLAC (tracks + cover) Time: 48 min 39 sec Size: 326,5 mb Guitarist Pat Metheny had long expressed admiration for Ornette Coleman's music, had recorded his compositions, and had worked extensively with bassist Charlie Haden, so a collaboration was not totally unexpected, though who would have guessed that it would be on the Geffen label? Metheny's almost rock star status has worked against him in other partnerships from time to time (notably, his overbearing playing on his project with Derek Bailey, The Sign of 4), but here he happily sublimates his showier instincts and works as sympathetic co-leader, deferring to Coleman's experience and genius. The music itself bears strong similarities to that of Coleman's Prime Time ensembles wherein all players solo at once, bracketed by the themes of the piece. Metheny often manages to be a quite expressive second voice, racing along beside the master saxophonist, offering alternative strategies and never showboating. The tandem percussion team of Jack DeJohnette and Coleman's son Denardo are ferocious when need be, and Charlie Haden is his standard exemplary self. Metheny fans owe it to themselves to listen to some of his most exploratory and least "pastel" playing and, in fact, the album also contains some of Coleman's best work since the mid-'70s.~ Brian Olewnick, All Music Guide |

1987: Gil Evans & Steve Lacy - Paris Blues |
Music » Jazz » Big Band » Progressive Jazz |
|
|
 Artists: Gil Evans & Steve Lacy Album: Paris Blues Label: Universal Jazz Year: 1987, release: 2008 Quality: FLAC Size: 275 mb One of my most beloved CD Recorded just three months before arranger/pianist Gil Evans's death, this duet album teams Evans with the great soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy. In truth, Evans's playing here is generally little more than melody statements and comping behind Lacy and, although the soprano is in top form, little of significance occurs. The duo performs lengthy versions of three Charles Mingus tunes, Duke Ellington's "Paris Blues" and Lacy's "Esteem." Evans was never a masterful keyboardist and clearly was not in Lacy's league as a player, so this CD is of greater interest from a historical standpoint than musical. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
