Donald Byrd • Byrd In Hand

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
For this excellent album, trumpeter Donald Byrd teams up with tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse, baritonist Pepper Adams, pianist Walter Davis, Jr., bassist Sam Jones and drummer Art Taylor. Together the sextet performs three Byrd originals, two Davis songs and the standard "Witchcraft." Although none of the new tunes caught on, the group (which includes two distinctive saxophonists and the rapidly maturing trumpet of Donald Byrd) plays consistently creative and spirited solos in the hard bop idiom.

por Scott Yanow
Para este excelente álbum, el trompetista Donald Byrd se asocia con el saxofonista tenor Charlie Rouse, el baritonista Pepper Adams, el pianista Walter Davis, Jr. el bajista Sam Jones y el baterista Art Taylor. Juntos, el sexteto interpreta tres originales de Byrd, dos canciones de Davis y el estándar "Witchcraft". Aunque ninguno de los temas nuevos ha calado, el grupo (que incluye a dos saxofonistas distintivos y la trompeta de Donald Byrd, que está madurando rápidamente) toca constantemente solos creativos y enérgicos en el lenguaje del hard bop.
