David Murray-Randy Weston • The Healers

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
This set of duets by David Murray (doubling on tenor and bass clarinet) and pianist Randy Weston is a bit of a surprise. Rather than performing standards or some of Weston's "hits," the duo stretches out on three obscurities by the two musicians (only Weston's "Blue Moses" is slightly known) and Butch Morris' "Clever Beggar." Weston provides a solid harmonic and rhythmic foundation for Murray's thick-toned but sometimes screeching flights, and the combination works pretty well.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Este conjunto de duetos de David Murray (doble en el clarinete tenor y bajo) y el pianista Randy Weston es un poco sorprendente. En lugar de interpretar estándares o algunos de los "éxitos" de Weston, el dúo se extiende en tres oscuridades de los dos músicos (sólo "Blue Moses" de Weston es ligeramente conocida) y "Clever Beggar" de Butch Morris. Weston proporciona una sólida base armónica y rítmica para los vuelos gruesos pero a veces chirriantes de Murray, y la combinación funciona estupendamente.
