Herbie Mann • Just Wailin'



This recording emphasizes ( although does not stick exclusively to) the blues.  The sextet has impressive players (flutist Herbie Mann, Charlie Rouse on tenor, guitarist Kenny Burrell, pianist Mal Waldron, bassist George Joyner and drummer Art Taylor ) and the material ( originals by Waldron, Burrell and Calvin Massey in addition to a brief "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid" ) is reasonably challenging but the musicians never really come together as a group.  The straightahead jam session has its strong moments and, as long as one keeps their expectations low, the music will be enjoyable despite the lack of major sparks. ~ Allmusic.com
This is a great CD because the music is high quality and easily accessable.  Unlike bebop which is like jazz on steroids, you can listen to this CD at the end of a hard day at work, cleaning the house, driving, etc.  You can put it on at a party and set a nice, relaxed, hip mood. ~ Glenn R. Ellison

Esta grabación hace hincapié ( aunque no se ciñe exclusivamente) en el blues.  El sexteto cuenta con músicos impresionantes (el flautista Herbie Mann, Charlie Rouse en el tenor, el guitarrista Kenny Burrell, el pianista Mal Waldron, el bajista George Joyner y el baterista Art Taylor ) y el material ( originales de Waldron, Burrell y Calvin Massey además de un breve "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid" ) es razonablemente desafiante, pero los músicos nunca se unen realmente como grupo.  La jam session directa tiene sus momentos fuertes y, siempre que uno mantenga sus expectativas bajas, la música será agradable a pesar de la falta de chispas importantes. ~ Allmusic.com
Este es un gran CD porque la música es de alta calidad y fácilmente accesible.  A diferencia del bebop, que es como el jazz con esteroides, puedes escuchar este CD al final de un duro día de trabajo, limpiando la casa, conduciendo, etc.  Puedes ponerlo en una fiesta y crear un ambiente agradable, relajado y moderno. ~ Glenn R. Ellison
