Bobby Hutcherson, David Sanborn, Joey DeFrancesco Featuring Billy Hart • Enjoy The View

 

Review
by Matt Collar
Bobby Hutcherson's 2014 album, Enjoy the View, finds the vibraphonist joining forces with saxophonist David Sanborn, organist/trumpeter Joey DeFrancesco, and drummer Billy Hart on a set of swinging, funky, and adventurous songs. This is Hutcherson's first album of studio material since 2009's Coltrane-inspired Wise One, and follows his 2012 live album, Somewhere in the Night, which also featured DeFrancesco. In a similar vein to Sanborn's more straight-ahead acoustic collaboration with keyboardist Bob James, 2013's Quartette Humaine, Enjoy the View eschews Hutcherson's more contemporary leanings for a visceral hard bop- and soul-jazz-influenced sound. Here we get a bevy of inspired original compositions, including the moody opening cut, "Delia," the impressionistic and driving modal soul of "Hey Harold," and the swinging, funky "Teddy." Ultimately, Enjoy the View is an album of expansive, highly engaging music that harks back to the best of Hutcherson's '60s and '70s work.

Reseña
por Matt Collar
El álbum de 2014 de Bobby Hutcherson, Enjoy the View, encuentra al vibrafonista uniendo fuerzas con el saxofonista David Sanborn, el organista/trompetista Joey DeFrancesco y el baterista Billy Hart en un conjunto de canciones oscilantes, funky y aventureras. Este es el primer álbum de material de estudio de Hutcherson desde Wise One, de 2009, inspirado en Coltrane, y sigue a su álbum en vivo de 2012, Somewhere in the Night, que también contó con DeFrancesco. En una línea similar a la colaboración acústica más directa de Sanborn con el teclista Bob James, Quartette Humaine de 2013, Enjoy the View evita las inclinaciones más contemporáneas de Hutcherson por un sonido visceral con influencias de hard bop y soul-jazz. Aquí tenemos un puñado de inspiradas composiciones originales, incluyendo el malhumorado corte de apertura, "Delia", el impresionista e impulsivo soul modal de "Hey Harold", y el swing y el funky de "Teddy". En definitiva, Enjoy the View es un álbum de música expansiva y muy atractiva que se remonta a lo mejor del trabajo de Hutcherson en los años 60 y 70.
