Review
by Scott Yanow
This
set was chiefly notable for teaming together for the first time
trumpeters Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw. Ostensibly a tribute to
Clifford Brown, the sextet date (which also features Benny Golson on
tenor, pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Cecil McBee and drummer Ben Riley)
only has two songs actually played by Brown ("I'll Remember April" and
"Jordu"), along with originals by Golson, Shaw and Hubbard ("Blues for
Duane"). No matter; it is for the Hubbard-Shaw matchup that this
straight-ahead outing is mostly recommended, as the two trumpeters
provide most of the fireworks.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Este
conjunto destaca principalmente por reunir por primera vez a los
trompetistas Freddie Hubbard y Woody Shaw. Ostensiblemente un homenaje a
Clifford Brown, la cita del sexteto (que también cuenta con Benny
Golson al tenor, el pianista Kenny Barron, el bajista Cecil McBee y el
batería Ben Riley) sólo tiene dos canciones realmente tocadas por Brown
("I'll Remember April" y "Jordu"), junto con originales de Golson, Shaw y
Hubbard ("Blues for Duane"). No importa; es por el duelo Hubbard-Shaw
por lo que se recomienda este álbum, ya que los dos trompetistas
proporcionan la mayor parte de los fuegos artificiales.
