Blue Gene Review
by Scott Yanow
The final of his series of jam sessions for Prestige features an excellent septet (the leader on tenor, trumpeter Idrees Sulieman, baritonist Pepper Adams, pianist Mal Waldron, bassist Doug Watkins, drummer Art Taylor and Ray Barretto on congas) stretching out on three original blues and the ballad "Hip Tip"; all four pieces were written by Waldron. Few surprises occur but everyone plays up to their usual high level. This enjoyable straightahead CD is a reissue of the original LP.

Reseña de Blue Gene
por Scott Yanow
La última de su serie de jam sessions para Prestige presenta un excelente septeto (el líder en el tenor, el trompetista Idrees Sulieman, el baritonista Pepper Adams, el pianista Mal Waldron, el bajista Doug Watkins, el batería Art Taylor y Ray Barretto en las congas) que se extiende en tres blues originales y la balada "Hip Tip"; las cuatro piezas fueron escritas por Waldron. Hay pocas sorpresas, pero todos tocan a su alto nivel habitual. Este agradable CD es una reedición del LP original.
