Joe Newman • The Complete Swingville Sessions

 

These Joe Newman Swingville sessions, an object lesson in relaxed and intelligent blowing, are among the happiest recorded by the trumpeter. All the elements fit compatible musicians, familiar material, congenial atmosphere dovetailed into a deceptively simple and always swinging whole.

The potential of a two-horn front line has rarely been exploited as brilliantly as it is here by Newman with Wess or Foster. The three Basie-ites are in top form, playing with more imagination and vitality than in most similar dates. Tommy Flanagan, present in all tracks, is a constant delight, sensitive, forceful when necessary, always sympathetic to the soloist, an essential part of the ideal rhythm sections employed. And the quartet session is a model of complete relaxation and how to assimilate individual expression into a collective wholein itself an ideal summation of what Joe Newman achieved on these dates.

Estas sesiones de Joe Newman Swingville, una lección de soplido relajado e inteligente, se encuentran entre las más felices grabadas por el trompetista. Todos los elementos encajan: músicos compatibles, material familiar, ambiente agradable, todo encaja en un conjunto engañosamente sencillo y siempre lleno de swing.

El potencial de una primera línea de dos trompas rara vez ha sido explotado tan brillantemente como aquí por Newman con Wess o Foster. Los tres Basie-ites están en plena forma, tocando con más imaginación y vitalidad que en la mayoría de fechas similares. Tommy Flanagan, presente en todos los temas, es una delicia constante, sensible, contundente cuando es necesario, siempre comprensivo con el solista, parte esencial de las ideales secciones rítmicas empleadas. Y la sesión de cuarteto es un modelo de relajación total y de cómo asimilar la expresión individual en un todo colectivo, en sí misma un resumen ideal de lo que Joe Newman consiguió en estas fechas.
