Steve Khan • Let's Call This

 

Review by Scott Yanow
Best-known for his fusion recordings, Steve Khan (ten years after recording the purely acoustic solo date Evidence) stretches out on this pure jazz date. Accompanied by bassist Ron Carter and drummer Al Foster, Khan explores a variety of superior jazz standards (including songs by Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, Larry Young, Freddie Hubbard and Lee Morgan) along with his own "Buddy System." This is one of Steve Khan's finest recordings to date and is highly recommended to those listeners not familiar with this side of his musical personality. https://www.allmusic.com/album/lets-call-this-mw0000268857

Crítica de Scott Yanow
Más conocido por sus grabaciones de fusión, Steve Khan (diez años después de grabar la fecha en solitario puramente acústica Evidence) se estira en esta fecha de puro jazz. Acompañado por el bajista Ron Carter y el batería Al Foster, Khan explora una variedad de estándares superiores de jazz (incluyendo canciones de Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, Larry Young, Freddie Hubbard y Lee Morgan) junto con su propio «Buddy System». Esta es una de las mejores grabaciones de Steve Khan hasta la fecha y es muy recomendable para aquellos oyentes que no estén familiarizados con esta faceta de su personalidad musical. https://www.allmusic.com/album/lets-call-this-mw0000268857
