Warne Marsh & Red Mitchell • Big Two

 

Tenor saxophonist Warne Marsh and bassist Red Mitchell were true soul brothers who played together intermittently during a friendship that survived nearly 40 years and was broken only by the sudden death of Warne Marsh in 1987. Now Red has gone too, and their remarkable musical association which flowered late in their lives is no more. But it survives in the memories of all who heard them play together and lives on through the outstanding recordings they made in 1980.

“I’m delighted that this timeless music has been reissued on compact disc and I’m happy about the two new titles being included in the program. The extraordinary empathy of the duo’s performances here is every bit as fresh today as when I originally heard them playing in the club. Sadly, Warne and Red have both passed on since this recording. which makes their startling musical improvisations together all the more valuable.” Keith Knox –

El saxofonista tenor Warne Marsh y el bajista Red Mitchell eran verdaderos hermanos del alma que tocaron juntos de forma intermitente durante una amistad que sobrevivió casi 40 años y que sólo se rompió con la repentina muerte de Warne Marsh en 1987. Ahora Red también se ha ido, y su notable asociación musical, que floreció al final de sus vidas, ya no existe. Pero sobrevive en la memoria de todos los que les oyeron tocar juntos y sigue viva a través de las extraordinarias grabaciones que hicieron en 1980.

"Estoy encantado de que esta música intemporal se haya reeditado en disco compacto y me alegro de los dos nuevos títulos que se incluyen en el programa. La extraordinaria empatía de las interpretaciones del dúo aquí es tan fresca hoy como cuando los escuché originalmente tocando en el club. Lamentablemente, Warne y Red han fallecido desde esta grabación, lo que hace aún más valiosas sus sorprendentes improvisaciones musicales juntos". Keith Knox -
