Barney Kessel • Some Like It Hot

 



Review
by Scott Yanow
The release of the movie Some Like It Hot served as a good excuse for guitarist Kessel to join together with Art Pepper (switching between alto, clarinet, and tenor), trumpeter Joe Gordon, pianist Jimmy Rowles, rhythm guitarist Jack Marshall, bassist Monty Budwig, and drummer Shelly Manne to interpret a variety of vintage numbers, most of which dated from the 1920s. Such tunes as "I Wanna Be Loved by You," "Runnin' Wild," "Down Among the Sheltering Palms," and "By the Beautiful Sea" are given fairly modern arrangements but still retain the flavor of the 1920s, and it's particularly interesting to hear Gordon and Pepper soloing on these ancient songs.

El lanzamiento de la película Some Like It Hot sirvió como una buena excusa para que el guitarrista Kessel se uniera a Art Pepper (cambiando entre alto, clarinete y tenor), el trompetista Joe Gordon, el pianista Jimmy Rowles, el guitarrista rítmico Jack Marshall, el bajista Monty Budwig y el baterista Shelly Manne para interpretar una variedad de números antiguos, la mayoría de los cuales datan de la década de 1920. Canciones como "I Wanna Be Loved by You", "Runnin' Wild", "Down Among the Sheltering Palms" y "By the Beautiful Sea" tienen arreglos bastante modernos, pero aún conservan el sabor de la década de 1920, y es particularmente interesante escuchar a Gordon y Pepper solos en estas canciones antiguas.
