Melvin Rhyne • The Legend



Review:
Other than an obscure date for Jazzland in 1960, this record was organist Melvin Rhyne's debut as a leader. Famous for his association with Wes Montgomery but in obscurity ever since in Milwaukee, Rhyne gradually emerged during the late '80s and was found to still be in prime form. Joined by guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Kenny Washington, Rhyne had the rare opportunity of being the center of attention on this set, which includes a variety of standards (such as "Groovin' High," "Old Folks" and "Stompin' at the Savoy") plus Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis' "Licks A-Plenty" and Montgomery's "The Trick Bag." The easily recommended record concludes with a lengthy "Blues for Wes," which finds trumpeter Brian Lynch and tenor saxophonist Don Braden making the group a quintet. / By Scott Yanow (AMG)

Reseña:
Aparte de una oscura fecha para Jazzland en 1960, este disco fue el debut del organista Melvin Rhyne como líder. Famoso por su asociación con Wes Montgomery pero en la oscuridad desde entonces en Milwaukee, Rhyne emergió gradualmente durante los últimos años de los 80 y se encontró todavía en plena forma. Acompañado por el guitarrista Peter Bernstein y el baterista Kenny Washington, Rhyne tuvo la rara oportunidad de ser el centro de atención en este set, que incluye una variedad de estándares (como "Groovin' High", "Old Folks" y "Stompin' at the Savoy") más "Licks A-Plenty" de Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis y "The Trick Bag" de Montgomery. El disco, fácilmente recomendable, concluye con un largo "Blues for Wes", en el que el trompetista Brian Lynch y el saxofonista tenor Don Braden convierten al grupo en un quinteto. / Por Scott Yanow (AMG)
