Pee Wee Russell Quartet • Ask Me Now



Review by Scott Yanow
After a lifetime spent playing unusual and unpredictable clarinet solos in Dixieland settings, Russell late in life broke out of the stereotype and played in more modern settings. This Impulse LP (begging to be reissued on CD) has his clarinet placed in a pianoless quartet with valve trombonist Marshall Brown, playing tunes by John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, and Ornette Coleman, along with some classic ballads. It is a remarkable and very lyrical date that briefly rejuvenated the career of this veteran individualist.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Después de toda una vida tocando solos de clarinete inusuales e impredecibles en escenarios de Dixieland, Russell, al final de su vida, rompió con el estereotipo y tocó en escenarios más modernos. Este LP Impulse (suplicando ser reeditado en CD) tiene su clarinete colocado en un cuarteto sin piano con el trombonista de válvula Marshall Brown, tocando temas de John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk y Ornette Coleman, junto con algunas baladas clásicas. Es una fecha notable y muy lírica que rejuveneció brevemente la carrera de este veterano individualista.
