Clifford Jordan • In The World

 

Review by Ken Dryden
Whether at the helm of a record date or as a sideman, Clifford Jordan was known for giving his all. These studio recordings were originally made for Strata East, a label known for its adventurous spirit. The tenor saxophonist leads two separate groups. The sextet selections include trombonist Julian Priester, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassists Wilbur Ware and Richard Davis, drummer Albert Heath, and trumpeter Don Cherry. Jordan's pensive "Vienna" is given an extended workout, with Cherry's somewhat abstract playing fitting in rather well. The second piece, Jordan's "Doug's Prelude," is also a bit brooding, showcasing the leader, Priester, and Kelly.

Reseña de Ken Dryden
Ya sea al frente de una cita discográfica o como acompañante, Clifford Jordan era conocido por darlo todo. Estas grabaciones de estudio se hicieron originalmente para Strata East, un sello conocido por su espíritu aventurero. El saxofonista tenor lidera dos grupos separados. Las selecciones del sexteto incluyen al trombonista Julian Priester, el pianista Wynton Kelly, los bajistas Wilbur Ware y Richard Davis, el baterista Albert Heath y el trompetista Don Cherry. La pensativa "Viena" de Jordan recibe un entrenamiento prolongado, con el juego algo abstracto de Cherry encajando bastante bien. La segunda pieza, "Doug's Prelude" de Jordan, también es un poco melancólica, mostrando al líder, Priester y Kelly.
