The Three Sounds
were one of the most popular artists on Blue Note Records during the
late '50s and '60s, thanks to their nimble, swinging, blues-inflected
mainstream jazz. Since
their records sounded interchangeable and their warm, friendly jazz was
instantly accessible, many critics dismissed the group at the time as
lounge-jazz, but in the '90s, critical consensus agreed that the group's
leader, pianist Gene Harris, was an accomplished, unique stylist whose
very ease of playing disguised his technical skill. Similarly,
his colleagues, bassist Andrew Simpkins and drummer Bill Dowdy, were a
deft, capable rhythm section that kept the group in an appealing, bluesy
groove. That groove was so appealing that The Three Sounds maintained a large fan following into the late '60s. During
the group's prime period -- from their 1958 debut for Blue Note to the
departure of Dowdy in 1967 -- The Three Sounds cut an enormous number of
records. Many records hit the shelves, while others stayed in the vaults, to be issued at a later date. Through
it all, the trio's sound remained essentially the same, with no real
dip in quality until the group began to splinter in the late '60s.

Los Three Sounds fueron uno de los artistas
más populares de Blue Note Records a finales de los años 50 y 60,
gracias a su ágil, swinging, blues-influenciado por el jazz
convencional. Como
sus discos sonaban intercambiables y su jazz cálido y amigable era
accesible al instante, muchos críticos descartaron al grupo en ese
momento como lounge-jazz, pero en los 90, el consenso de la crítica
coincidió en que el líder del grupo, el pianista Gene Harris, era un
estilista consumado y único cuya gran facilidad para tocar disfrazaba su
habilidad técnica. Del
mismo modo, sus colegas, el bajista Andrew Simpkins y el baterista Bill
Dowdy, eran una sección rítmica hábil y capaz que mantenía al grupo en
un atractivo ritmo de blues. Ese ritmo era tan atractivo que The Three Sounds mantuvo una gran afición a finales de los 60. Durante
el período de apogeo del grupo, desde su debut en 1958 con Blue Note
hasta la salida de Dowdy en 1967, The Three Sounds grabaron un enorme
número de discos. Muchos discos llegaron a los estantes, mientras que otros se quedaron en las bóvedas, para ser emitidos en una fecha posterior. A
través de todo esto, el sonido del trío permaneció esencialmente igual,
sin una verdadera disminución en la calidad hasta que el grupo comenzó a
escindirse a finales de los 60.
