Lou Donaldson • Wailing with Lou

 



Wailing With Lou is an appropriate title for this enjoyable set of straight-ahead bop. Whether he's riding the propulsive rhythms of "Caravan" or settling down into a ballad, Donaldson takes the center stage with his surprisingly full alto tone. He still displays a clear Charlie Parker influence, but he is beginning to break free and develop his own style. In particular, he relies on bluesy runs more than Bird, which give his music a soulful edge. But what makes Wailing With Lou so enjoyable is the hot interplay between Donaldson, trumpeter Donald Byrd, pianist Herman Foster, bassist Peck Morrison and drummer Art Taylor. All five musicians give enthusiastic, infectious performances. There's nothing out of the ordinary here -- just hard-driving bop and sensitive ballads, which are sure to please fans of the style. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Llorando con Lou es un título apropiado para este divertido juego de bop directo. Ya sea que esté montando los ritmos propulsivos de "Caravana" o estableciéndose en una balada, Donaldson toma el centro del escenario con su sorprendente tono alto completo. Todavía muestra una clara influencia de Charlie Parker, pero está empezando a liberarse y a desarrollar su propio estilo. En particular, confía más en el blues que en Bird, lo que le da a su música un toque conmovedor. Pero lo que hace que Wailing With Lou sea tan agradable es la interacción entre Donaldson, el trompetista Donald Byrd, el pianista Herman Foster, el bajista Peck Morrison y el baterista Art Taylor. Los cinco músicos dan actuaciones entusiastas e infecciosas. No hay nada fuera de lo común aquí - sólo bop duro y baladas sensibles, que seguro que complacerán a los fans del estilo. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide ~
