Ken Munson • Super Flute

 

Review
by Jason Ankeny
Fans of Bobbi Humphrey's Mizell Brothers-produced LPs for Blue Note, as well as Harold Alexander's dates for Flying Dutchman, should add to their wants' lists Ken Munson's Super Flute. Munson isn't quite in the same league as Humphrey or Alexander, mind you, but his flute playing is effortlessly funky, and listeners with a preference for the first half of the soul-jazz equation will find much to savor. Munson keeps the music feather-light and upbeat, drawing most of his material from the contemporary pop charts -- familiar melodies like "I Can See Clearly Now," "Back Stabbers," and "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" glisten and glide, buoyed by sweetly soulful arrangements and flute breaks that soar and twist like lightning bugs at dawn.

Reseña
por Jason Ankeny
Los fans de los LPs de Bobbi Humphrey para Blue Note producidos por los Mizell Brothers, así como los de Harold Alexander para Flying Dutchman, deberían añadir a sus listas de discos deseados Ken Munson's Super Flute. Munson no está en la misma liga que Humphrey o Alexander, pero su forma de tocar la flauta es funky sin esfuerzo, y los oyentes que prefieran la primera mitad de la ecuación soul-jazz encontrarán mucho que saborear. Munson mantiene la música ligera y alegre, extrayendo la mayor parte de su material de las listas de éxitos del pop contemporáneo: melodías familiares como "I Can See Clearly Now", "Back Stabbers" y "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" brillan y se deslizan, animadas por arreglos dulcemente conmovedores y pausas de flauta que se elevan y retuercen como relámpagos al amanecer.
