Jimmy Raney • Momentum

This 1974 LP marked a comeback for Jimmy Raney, following his long layoff from the music business in order to make a full recovery from alcoholism. Accompanied by bassist Richard Davis and drummer Alan Dawson, the guitarist is in terrific form as he explores several standards, a bossa nova-flavored "Nobody Else but Me," and a driving take of "Just Friends." He composed the other two works heard on the date. His piece, "'Momentum," is a reworking of an earlier original he called "Motion," both of which are obviously based upon the chord changes to "You Stepped Out of a Dream." "We'll Be Together" is an original ballad (set to words he wrote earlier, according to liner-note writer Ira Gitler), though it sounds as if it was partially inspired by "Autumn in New York"; it also features a strong solo by Davis. Originally released on MPS and reissued by Pausa, this record has been unavailable for quite some time, but it can be found with a diligent search. ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide

Este LP de 1974 marcó el regreso de Jimmy Raney, tras su largo despido del negocio de la música para recuperarse del alcoholismo. Acompañado por el bajista Richard Davis y el baterista Alan Dawson, el guitarrista se encuentra en excelente forma mientras explora varios estándares, un "Nobody Else but Me" con sabor a bossa nova, y una toma de conducción de "Just Friends". Compuso las otras dos obras que se oyeron en la cita. Su pieza, "'Momentum", es una reelaboración de un original anterior que llamó "Motion", ambas basadas obviamente en los cambios de acordes de "You Stepped Out of a Dream". "We'll Be Together" es una balada original (ajustada a las palabras que escribió antes, según el escritor de notas de línea Ira Gitler), aunque suena como si estuviera parcialmente inspirada en "Otoño en Nueva York"; también presenta un fuerte solo de Davis. Originalmente publicado en MPS y reeditado por Pausa, este disco no ha estado disponible durante bastante tiempo, pero se puede encontrar con una búsqueda diligente. ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide ~
