Dorothy Donegan • Dorothy Donegan Live!

 



Review by Scott Yanow
One of several Dorothy Donegan LPs that may be found in used record stores but have yet to be reissued on CD, this exuberant trio set (which finds the pianist accompanied by an unidentified bassist and drummer) was recorded at the Embers in New York in 1958. As usual Donegan, after usually stating a swing-based melody, rips into the music and comes up with lots of surprising ideas, often switching styles and showing off her virtuosity and flexibility. It is strange that she did not become a major box-office sensation during the era.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Este exuberante trío (en el que la pianista está acompañada por un bajista y un baterista no identificados), uno de los varios LPs de Dorothy Donegan que se pueden encontrar en las tiendas de discos de segunda mano pero que aún no han sido reeditados en CD, fue grabado en el Embers de Nueva York en 1958. Como es habitual, Donegan, tras enunciar normalmente una melodía basada en el swing, se lanza a la música y aporta un montón de ideas sorprendentes, cambiando a menudo de estilo y haciendo gala de su virtuosismo y flexibilidad. Es extraño que no se convirtiera en una gran sensación de taquilla durante la época.
