Hal Singer With Charlie Shavers • Blue Stompin'

 


Review by Scott Yanow
This is a fun set of heated swing with early R&B overtones. The title cut is a real romp, with tenor saxophonist Hal Singer and trumpeter Charlie Shavers not only constructing exciting solos but riffing behind each other. With the exception of the standard "With a Song in My Heart," Singer and Shavers wrote the remainder of the repertoire, and with the assistance of a particularly strong rhythm section (pianist Ray Bryant, bassist Wendell Marshall and drummer Osie Johnson), there are many fine moments on this enjoyable set. Recommended.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Este es un conjunto divertido de swing acalorado con matices de R&B temprano. El corte que da título al disco es un verdadero retozo, con el saxofonista tenor Hal Singer y el trompetista Charlie Shavers no sólo construyendo excitantes solos, sino rifeando uno detrás del otro. Con la excepción del estándar "With a Song in My Heart", Singer y Shavers escribieron el resto del repertorio, y con la ayuda de una sección rítmica particularmente fuerte (el pianista Ray Bryant, el bajista Wendell Marshall y el baterista Osie Johnson), hay muchos buenos momentos en este agradable conjunto. Recomendado.
