'Papa' John DeFrancesco • Hip Cake Walk



Review by Scott Yanow
Papa John DeFrancesco, the father of organist/trumpeter Joey DeFrancesco and guitarist John DeFrancesco II, is an excellent organist in the style of Jimmy Smith. He did not begin to emerge on records until the 1990s, but has made up for lost time through his High Note recordings. This particular set has plenty of blues (including Lalo Schifrin's "The Cat," "Freddy the Freeloader," "Back at the Chicken Shack," and "Hip Cake Walk") along with a few standards and basic chord changes. DeFrancesco, whose two sons are on some of the selections (with Joey on trumpet) is the main voice throughout. The supporting cast includes the fine if obscure tenor saxophonist Bootsie Barnes. A fun session that is easily recommended to fans of the swinging and bluesy jazz organ.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Papa John DeFrancesco, padre del organista y trompetista Joey DeFrancesco y del guitarrista John DeFrancesco II, es un excelente organista al estilo de Jimmy Smith. No comenzó a aparecer en los registros hasta la década de 1990, pero ha compensado el tiempo perdido a través de sus grabaciones High Note. Este set en particular tiene un montón de blues (incluyendo "The Cat" de Lalo Schifrin, "Freddy the Freeloader", "Back at the Chicken Shack", "Back at the Chicken Shack" y "Hip Cake Walk") junto con algunos estándares y cambios básicos de acordes. DeFrancesco, cuyos dos hijos están en algunas de las selecciones (con Joey en la trompeta) es la voz principal en todo momento. El elenco de soporte incluye a la saxofonista Bootsie Barnes, una saxofonista de tenor muy fina y oscura. Una sesión divertida que se recomienda fácilmente a los fans del órgano de swinging y bluesy jazz.
