Thad Jones • Detroit-New York Junction

 

Review
by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
For his first session as a leader for Blue Note, trumpeter Thad Jones ran through five songs with a small group which also included fellow Detroiters pianist Tommy Flanagan and guitarist Kenny Burrell as well as part-time Detroiter tenor saxophonist Billy Mitchell. Jones' time with Debut certainly broke him in, and he is thoroughly professional on this record. Compared to its predecessor, The Fabulous Thad Jones, and its successor, The Magnificent Thad Jones, Detroit-New York Junction pales slightly, but it's nevertheless an excellent set of driving hard bop.

Reseña
por Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Para su primera sesión como líder para Blue Note, el trompetista Thad Jones tocó cinco canciones con un pequeño grupo que también incluía a sus compañeros de Detroit, el pianista Tommy Flanagan y el guitarrista Kenny Burrell, así como al saxofonista tenor de Detroit a tiempo parcial Billy Mitchell. El tiempo que Jones pasó con Debut sin duda le sirvió para introducirse, y en este disco se muestra completamente profesional. Comparado con su predecesor, The Fabulous Thad Jones, y su sucesor, The Magnificent Thad Jones, Detroit-New York Junction palidece ligeramente, pero es, no obstante, un excelente conjunto de hard bop.
