Freddie Hubbard • The Night Of The Cookers

 

Review
by Ron Wynn
Trumpeters Freddie Hubbard and Lee Morgan joined forces for two superb mid-'60s Blue Note LPs, The Night of the Cookers, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, which have been repackaged as a two-disc set. Hubbard was a master of tonguing effects, high-voltage upper notes, and long phrases, while Morgan was a hypnotic improviser. The two trumpeters, despite their consistent brilliance, were almost outdistanced by alto saxophonist and flutist James Spaulding, then at his peak. Spaulding's effortlessly played, torrid alto solos were explosive and often dazzling. The rhythm section grounded the proceedings in elastic and sympathetic rhythms, providing the final element in the formula comprising two tremendous albums.

Reseña
por Ron Wynn
Los trompetistas Freddie Hubbard y Lee Morgan unieron sus fuerzas en dos magníficos LPs de Blue Note de mediados de los 60, The Night of the Cookers, Vol. 1 y Vol. 2, que han sido reempaquetados como un conjunto de dos discos. Hubbard era un maestro de los efectos de lengüeta, las notas altas de alto voltaje y las frases largas, mientras que Morgan era un improvisador hipnótico. Los dos trompetistas, a pesar de su constante brillantez, fueron casi superados por el saxofonista alto y flautista James Spaulding, entonces en su mejor momento. Los tórridos solos de alto de Spaulding, tocados sin esfuerzo, eran explosivos y a menudo deslumbrantes. La sección rítmica cimentaba el espectáculo en ritmos elásticos y simpáticos, aportando el elemento final a la fórmula que componía dos álbumes tremendos.
