The Joe Newman Quartet ‎• Soft Swingin' Jazz

Review by Jason Ankeny
The title says it all. Soft Swinging Jazz pairs Joe Newman with organist Shirley Scott, bassist Eddie Jones, and Charlie Persip for a mellow, lovely session unique within the trumpeter's catalog. For starters, Newman assumes vocal duties on a handful of cuts, proving himself a fine crooner. Moreover, the spacious, nuanced arrangements afford him the room to summon some of his most intimate but impassioned solos. Not to mention that Scott's an uncommonly sympathetic collaborator, shaping and underlining the melodies to create rolling, contoured grooves with the texture of velvet.

El título lo dice todo. Soft Swinging Jazz combina a Joe Newman con la organista Shirley Scott, el bajista Eddie Jones y Charlie Persip para una sesión suave y encantadora, única dentro del catálogo del trompetista. Para empezar, Newman asume tareas vocales en un puñado de cortes, demostrando ser un gran cantante. Además, los espaciosos y matizados arreglos le brindan el espacio para convocar algunos de sus solos más íntimos pero apasionados. Sin mencionar que Scott es un colaborador excepcionalmente simpático, que da forma y resalta las melodías para crear surcos ondulados y contorneados con la textura de terciopelo.
