Freddie Hubbard • Born To Be Blue

 


Review by Scott Yanow
Trumpeter Freddie Hubbard teams up with veteran tenor-saxophonist Harold Land and Hubbard's regular rhythm section of the period (keyboardist Billy Childs, bassist Larry Klein, drummer Steve Houghton and percussionist Buck Clark) on this fine modern hard bop CD, a straight reissue of the original Pablo LP. Hubbard had hurt his reputation with his very commercial Columbia recordings of the mid-to-late '70s so in 1981 he was doing his best to return to his brand of straightahead jazz. This date is highlighted by "Gibraltar," Clifford Brown's "Joy Spring" and a revisit to Hubbard's "Up Jumped Spring."

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El trompetista Freddie Hubbard forma equipo con el veterano tenor-saxofonista Harold Land y la sección rítmica habitual de Hubbard de la época (el teclista Billy Childs, el bajista Larry Klein, el batería Steve Houghton y el percusionista Buck Clark) en este excelente CD de hard bop moderno, una reedición directa del LP original de Pablo. Hubbard había dañado su reputación con sus grabaciones muy comerciales de Columbia de mediados y finales de los 70, así que en 1981 hizo todo lo posible por volver a su estilo de jazz directo. En esta fecha destacan «Gibraltar», «Joy Spring» de Clifford Brown y una revisita a «Up Jumped Spring» de Hubbard.
