Jonah Jones • I Dig Chicks!

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
The cover of this LP gives males three good reasons to "dig chicks." Trumpeter/vocalist Jonah Jones continues his "swinging with a shuffle" formula, performing 11 songs named after women, plus the title cut (which has one of his six vocals of the date). Jones, pianist Teddy Brannon, bassist John Brown and drummer George Foster have a good time romping on such numbers as "Mandy, Make Up Your Mind," "Tangerine," "Blue Lou," "Rosetta" and some lesser-known tunes. The overall results may be a bit lightweight and predictable, but the trumpeter gives this album enough exciting moments to make it worth getting.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
La portada de este LP da a los hombres tres buenas razones para "cavar pollitos". El trompetista/vocalista Jonah Jones continúa con su fórmula de "swinging with a shuffle", interpretando 11 canciones con nombre de mujer, más el corte que da título al disco (que tiene una de sus seis voces de la fecha). Jones, el pianista Teddy Brannon, el bajista John Brown y el baterista George Foster se divierten en números como "Mandy, Make Up Your Mind", "Tangerine", "Blue Lou", "Rosetta" y algunos temas menos conocidos. El resultado general puede ser un poco ligero y predecible, pero el trompetista da a este álbum suficientes momentos emocionantes para que merezca la pena conseguirlo.
