Barney Kessel, Shelly Manne & Ray Brown • Poll Winners Three!

Review by Scott Yanow

From 1956-1959, it seemed as if guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Shelly Manne won just about every jazz poll. For their third joint recording, which has been reissued on CD, the musicians contributed an original apiece and also performed seven standards. Highlights of the fairly typical but swinging straightahead set include "Soft Winds," "It's All Right with Me," "Mack the Knife," and "I'm Afraid the Masquerade Is Over."

Reseña de Scott Yanow

De 1956 a 1959, parecía que el guitarrista Barney Kessel, el bajista Ray Brown y el baterista Shelly Manne ganaron casi todas las encuestas sobre jazz. Para su tercera grabación conjunta, que ha sido reeditada en CD, los músicos contribuyeron con una pieza original y también interpretaron siete estándares. Entre los aspectos más destacados del conjunto bastante típico, pero que se balancea directamente, se incluyen "Soft Winds", "It's All Right with Me", "Mack the Knife" y "I'm Afraid the Masquerade Is Over".
