Ron Carter & Jim Hall • Telepathy

 

Telepathy is the union on compact disc of two Ron Carter/Jim Hall live collaborations. Live at the Village Gate (Concord 4245, 1984) comprises the first disc of this two-disc set, while Telephone (Concord 4270, 1985) comprises the second. Collectively, Telepathy offers a seamless look a to of the most urbane and intelligent jazz musicians performing. Ron Carter brings to this duo his abstract yet grounded view of double-bass playing while Jim Hall provides his brand of the most delicate guitar playing I have heard in some time. Hall's guitar on this collection make me think of doilies very intricately woven from spider silk. His single note lines are spare and his chording precise and clear. He might be considered as Count Basie to Joe Pass' Art Tatum. Carter, for his part, is a completely empathetic accompanist and soloist.

Live at the Village Gate contains the most satisfying of music with an ultra bluesy "Bag's Groove", "Blue Monk", and a calypso "St. Thomas". But don't discount Telephone. It has a "Stardust" to swoon to. I found this set very enjoyable and would hope that the label has more plans like this one in the future. This is superb chamber jazz by two incredible practitioners at the pinnacle of their powers. Kudos to Concord for this repackaging.

Telepathy es la unión en disco compacto de dos colaboraciones en vivo de Ron Carter / Jim Hall. Live at the Village Gate (Concord 4245, 1984) comprende el primer disco de este conjunto de dos discos, mientras que Telephone (Concord 4270, 1985) comprende el segundo. En conjunto, Telepathy ofrece una mirada perfecta a la actuación de los músicos de jazz más urbanos e inteligentes. Ron Carter trae a este dúo su visión abstracta pero fundamentada de tocar el contrabajo, mientras que Jim Hall ofrece su estilo de tocar la guitarra más delicado que he escuchado en algún tiempo. La guitarra de Hall en esta colección me hace pensar en tapetes muy intrincados de seda de araña. Sus líneas de una sola nota son sobrias y sus acordes precisos y claros. Podría ser considerado como el Conde Basie del Art Tatum de Joe Pass. Carter, por su parte, es un acompañante y solista completamente empático.

Live at the Village Gate contiene la música más satisfactoria con un ultra blues "Bag's Groove", "Blue Monk" y un calipso "St. Thomas". Pero no descartes Teléfono. Tiene un "Stardust" para desmayarse. Encontré este set muy agradable y espero que el sello tenga más planes como este en el futuro. Este es un magnífico jazz de cámara de dos increíbles practicantes en la cima de sus poderes. Felicitaciones a Concord por este reenvasado.
