Tommy Flanagan • Live At The Jazz Festival In Latin America

 


 
Tommy Flanagan was born in Detroit, Michigan on March 16,1930. As a teenager he established a reputation as a sensative and stimulating accompanist. This led to recordings and live appearances with J.J Johnson, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins (Saxophone Colossus), and Coleman Hawkins. For a long time Flanagan's skill in backing soloists invloved total immersion in servicing singers, notably Tony Bennett and Ella Fitzgerald. From the mid 1970's however, life as an independent trio leader and soloist has produced many fine albums, in which Flanagan's surprisingly delecate touch combines with rhythmic resilience to create a uniquely refined approach to bebop piano.

Tommy Flanagan nació en Detroit, Michigan, el 16 de marzo de 1930. En su adolescencia se ganó una reputación como acompañante sensible y estimulante. Esto le llevó a realizar grabaciones y apariciones en directo con J.J Johnson, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins (Saxophone Colossus) y Coleman Hawkins. Durante mucho tiempo, la habilidad de Flanagan para acompañar a los solistas supuso una inmersión total en el servicio de los cantantes, especialmente Tony Bennett y Ella Fitzgerald. Sin embargo, desde mediados de los años 70, la vida como líder de un trío independiente y solista ha producido muchos álbumes excelentes, en los que el toque sorprendentemente delicado de Flanagan se combina con la resistencia rítmica para crear un enfoque singularmente refinado del piano bebop.
