Woody Shaw • In The Beginning

 

Review
by Ron Wynn
Some interesting, uneven, but worthwhile '65 material from trumpeter Woody Shaw. He was still fresh on the jazz scene and had only recently recovered from the death of mentor Eric Dolphy. Shaw teamed with tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, pianist Herbie Hancock, and bassists Ron Carter or Paul Chambers on these cuts. His potential certainly emerges, as does the fact he was a tentative, unsure soloist at this juncture.

Reseña
por Ron Wynn
Un material interesante, desigual, pero que vale la pena del trompetista Woody Shaw en el '65. Todavía estaba fresco en la escena del jazz y se había recuperado recientemente de la muerte de su mentor Eric Dolphy. Shaw formó equipo con el saxofonista tenor Joe Henderson, el pianista Herbie Hancock y los bajistas Ron Carter o Paul Chambers en estos cortes. Sin duda, su potencial sale a relucir, al igual que el hecho de que era un solista vacilante e inseguro en esta coyuntura.
