Larry Coryell • Planet End

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
During 1968-75, guitarist Larry Coryell recorded a wide variety of interesting material for Vanguard. This album, a CD reissue of the original Lp, was Coryell's final one for the label. The five selections, although originals, have the feel of a jam session. Coryell's Eleventh House (which includes trumpeter Mike Lawrence, keyboardist Mike Mandel, bassist Danny Trifan and drummer Alphonse Mouzon) is featured on two tracks (their final recordings), Coryell plays all of the instruments on the brief "The Eyes Of Love" and on two lengthy jams he is matched with fellow guitarist John McLaughlin, bassist Miroslav Vitous, drummer Billy Cobham and (on Larry Young's "Tyrone") keyboardist Chick Corea. The lively music is very much of the period and this CD is a bit brief (at 34 minutes) but the high-quality of the solos makes this one worth picking up by listeners interested in Larry Coryell's early period.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Durante 1968-75, el guitarrista Larry Coryell grabó una gran variedad de material interesante para Vanguard. Este álbum, una reedición en CD del Lp original, fue el último de Coryell para el sello. Las cinco selecciones, aunque son originales, tienen el aspecto de una jam session. La Eleventh House de Coryell (que incluye al trompetista Mike Lawrence, al teclista Mike Mandel, al bajista Danny Trifan y al baterista Alphonse Mouzon) aparece en dos temas (sus últimas grabaciones), Coryell toca todos los instrumentos en la breve "The Eyes Of Love" y en dos largas jams se empareja con su compañero guitarrista John McLaughlin, el bajista Miroslav Vitous, el baterista Billy Cobham y (en "Tyrone" de Larry Young) el teclista Chick Corea. La música animada es muy de la época y este CD es un poco breve (34 minutos), pero la calidad de los solos hace que merezca la pena para los oyentes interesados en la primera época de Larry Coryell.
