James Carter Quartet • JC on the Set

 



James Carter's first album as a leader – and a set that helped mark a place for him as one of the strongest saxophone voices of the 90s! The album has Carter's work on alto, tenor, and baritone saxes set center stage – alongside backing by a trio that features pianist Craig Taborn, but which allows plenty of space for Carter to dominate the sound with his deeply soulful tone and often-pyrotechnic approach to his solos. There's some occasional moments that go a bit over the top, in a "hey look at me" sort of mode – but they're nicely offset by a deeper spirit that appreciates the traditions that inform Carter's sound, and which made the record a real standout in the early 90s. Titles include "Lunatic", "Hour Of Parting", "Caravan", "Blues For A Nomadic Princess", "Worried & Blue", and "Baby Girl Blues"

¡El primer álbum de James Carter como líder - y un conjunto que ayudó a marcar un lugar para él como una de las voces más fuertes del saxofón de los años 90! El álbum tiene el trabajo de Carter en los saxos alto, tenor y barítono en el centro del escenario, junto con el respaldo de un trío que cuenta con el pianista Craig Taborn, pero que deja mucho espacio para que Carter domine el sonido con su tono profundamente conmovedor y el enfoque a menudo pirotécnico de sus solos. Hay algunos momentos ocasionales en los que se pasa un poco de la raya, en plan «eh, miradme», pero están bien compensados por un espíritu más profundo que aprecia las tradiciones que informan el sonido de Carter y que hicieron que el disco destacara a principios de los noventa. Los títulos incluyen «Lunatic», «Hour Of Parting», «Caravan», «Blues For A Nomadic Princess», «Worried & Blue» y «Baby Girl Blues».
