Arnett Cobb • Funky Butt

 

Review by Scott Yanow
Arnett Cobb, a tenor from the 1940s who (like Illinois Jacquet) fused together some of the most exciting aspects of swing and early R&B, is in typically exuberant form on this quartet set with pianist Derek Smith, bassist Ray Drummond and drummer Ronnie Bedford. Cobb is warm on the ballads but the stomps (particularly "Jumpin' at the Woodside" and "I Got Rhythm") are what make this record most memorable.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Arnett Cobb, un tenor de los años 40 que (como Illinois Jacquet) fusionó algunos de los aspectos más excitantes del swing y del primer R&B, está en su típica forma exuberante en este cuarteto con el pianista Derek Smith, el bajista Ray Drummond y el batería Ronnie Bedford. Cobb se muestra cálido en las baladas, pero son los stomps (especialmente «Jumpin' at the Woodside» y «I Got Rhythm») los que hacen que este disco sea más memorable.
