Bobby Timmons • Chun-King

 

 

Review by Jason Ankeny
Bobby Timmons' second Prestige date pairs the pianist with bassist Keter Betts and drummer Albert "Tootie" Heath for an intimate, soulful session that spotlights the range and command of all involved. From the poignant "Someone to Watch Over Me" to the lithe "I Could Have Danced All Night" to the lively "O Grande Amor," the group proves remarkably nimble and expressive, interacting with a complexity that belies the limitations of the trio format. Chun-King also charts Timmons' continuing evolution as a composer, highlighted by the cocksure blues of "Walking Death" and the gospel-inspired "Gettin' It Together." [Reissued in 2003 along with the preceding Little Barefoot Soul as The Prestige Trio Sessions.]

Reseña de Jason Ankeny
La segunda cita de Bobby Timmons con Prestige une al pianista con el bajista Keter Betts y el batería Albert «Tootie» Heath en una sesión íntima y conmovedora que pone de relieve el alcance y el dominio de todos los participantes. Desde la conmovedora «Someone to Watch Over Me», pasando por la ágil «I Could Have Danced All Night», hasta la animada «O Grande Amor», el grupo se muestra extraordinariamente ágil y expresivo, interactuando con una complejidad que contradice las limitaciones del formato de trío. Chun-King también muestra la continua evolución de Timmons como compositor, destacando el blues descarado de «Walking Death» y la inspiración gospel de «Gettin' It Together». [Reeditado en 2003 junto con el anterior Little Barefoot Soul como The Prestige Trio Sessions].
