Randy Weston • With These Hands

 

Review by Scott Yanow
With These Hands is one of pianist Randy Weston's lesser-known sets. Weston, who already had a fairly distinctive style, mostly sticks to standards (which is quite unusual for him), including "The Man I Love," "This Can't Be Love," and "Do Nothing Til You Hear from Me." A quartet is featured that also includes baritonist Cecil Payne (who would be a longtime associate), bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and drummer Wilbert Hogan. However, the date does include two of Weston's originals and is actually highlighted by the debut of his famous "Little Niles."

Reseña de Scott Yanow
With These Hands es uno de los discos menos conocidos del pianista Randy Weston. Weston, que ya tenía un estilo bastante distintivo, se ciñe sobre todo a los estándares (algo bastante inusual en él), incluyendo «The Man I Love», «This Can't Be Love» y «Do Nothing Til You Hear from Me». Aparece un cuarteto que también incluye al baritonista Cecil Payne (que sería su socio durante mucho tiempo), al bajista Ahmed Abdul-Malik y al batería Wilbert Hogan. Sin embargo, la fecha incluye dos de los originales de Weston y en realidad se destaca por el debut de su famoso «Little Niles».
