Review
by Jason Ankeny
One year after relocating to Stockholm, Sweden, Red Mitchell recruited pianist Bobo Stenson and drummer Rune Carlsson to record One Long String, a lyrical and vividly liberated effort that underscores just how dramatically the change of scenery impacted the bassist's musical approach. The album percolates with energy and daring, with an underlying soulfulness resulting from the rhythmic synergy uniting Mitchell and Carlsson, but it's nevertheless Stenson (Mitchell's co-writer on the original material) who commands the most attention, thanks to his precise yet far-ranging melodies. Indeed, few trio sessions are so robust or so intrepid. For all the mechanics at work throughout One Long String, the end result is a record that never loses focus or its sense of collaborative spirit.

Reseña
por Jason Ankeny
Un año después de trasladarse a Estocolmo, Suecia, Red Mitchell reclutó al pianista Bobo Stenson y al batería Rune Carlsson para grabar One Long String, un trabajo lírico y vivamente liberado que subraya hasta qué punto el cambio de escenario afectó dramáticamente al enfoque musical del bajista. El álbum rebosa energía y atrevimiento, con un soul subyacente fruto de la sinergia rítmica que une a Mitchell y Carlsson, pero es Stenson (coautor de Mitchell en el material original) quien acapara la mayor atención, gracias a sus melodías precisas y de gran alcance. De hecho, pocas sesiones de trío son tan robustas o tan intrépidas. A pesar de todos los mecanismos que se dan cita a lo largo de One Long String, el resultado final es un disco que nunca pierde de vista su espíritu de colaboración.
