Barry Harris • At The Jazz Worskhop

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
Pianist Barry Harris' second recording as a leader (he led a set for Argo in 1958) finds him at the age of 30 playing in the same boppish style he would have throughout his career. Teamed up with bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes, this live CD reissue (which adds three alternate takes to the original LP program) is an excellent example of Harris' playing. Highlights of the enthusiastic straight-ahead set (which includes three obscure but worthy originals by the pianist) include "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby," "Moose the Mooche" and "Woody'N You."

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
La segunda grabación como líder del pianista Barry Harris (dirigió un set para Argo en 1958) le encuentra a la edad de 30 años tocando en el mismo estilo boppish que tendría a lo largo de su carrera. Formando equipo con el bajista Sam Jones y el batería Louis Hayes, esta reedición en CD en directo (que añade tres tomas alternativas al programa original en LP) es un excelente ejemplo de la forma de tocar de Harris. Entre los temas más destacados del entusiasta directo (que incluye tres oscuros pero dignos originales del pianista) figuran "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby", "Moose the Mooche" y "Woody'N You".
