Gene Harris & The Three Sounds • Live At the It Club



Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Recorded in 1970 but not released until 1996, Live At the "It Club" shows the Three Sounds pulling out funky, gritty rhythms out of their basic bluesy hard-bop sound. The group's funky influences are most noticeable in the rhythm section of drummer Carl Burnette and bassist Henry Franklin, who had been playing with Harris for only a short time when this set was recorded. The rhythm section pushes Harris, making the music loose and swinging -- the groove matters more than anything on the album. Occasionally, the energy of the Three Sounds lags, but Live at the "It Club" is an enjoyable piece of grooving soul-jazz.

Reseña de Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Grabado en 1970, pero no publicado hasta 1996, Live At the "It Club" muestra a los Three Sounds sacando ritmos funky y arenosos de su sonido básico de blues y hard-bop. Las influencias funky del grupo son más notables en la sección rítmica del batería Carl Burnette y el bajista Henry Franklin, que llevaba poco tiempo tocando con Harris cuando se grabó este set. La sección rítmica empuja a Harris, haciendo que la música sea suelta y oscilante - el ritmo importa más que nada en el álbum. De vez en cuando, la energía de los Three Sounds decae, pero Live at the "It Club" es una pieza agradable de soul-jazz con ritmo.
