Review
by Scott Yanow
This
CD serves as a perfect introduction to the memorable but always
underrated trumpeter Woody Shaw, who tragically had only three years
left to live - Sticking to jazz standards (including "There Will Never
Be Another You," a ten-minute rendition of "It Might as Well Be Spring,"
and a surprisingly effective up-tempo romp through "The Woody
Woodpecker Song"), Shaw is heard in a quartet with pianist Kenny Barron,
bassist Neil Swainson, and drummer Victor Jones, leading a quintet on
two numbers with the up-and-coming altoist Kenny Garrett, and welcoming
guest guitarist Peter Leitch to a sextet rendition of Sonny Rollins'
"Solid." A gem.

Reseña

Este
CD sirve de perfecta introducción al memorable pero siempre
infravalorado trompetista Woody Shaw, a quien trágicamente sólo le
quedaban tres años de vida - Ciñéndose a los estándares del jazz
(incluyendo "There Will Never Be Another You", una interpretación de
diez minutos de "It Might as Well Be Spring", y un sorprendentemente
efectivo revolcón up-tempo a través de "The Woody Woodpecker Song"),
Shaw es escuchado en un cuarteto con el pianista Kenny Barron, el
bajista Neil Swainson y el batería Victor Jones, liderando un quinteto
en dos números con el prometedor contralto Kenny Garrett, y dando la
bienvenida al guitarrista invitado Peter Leitch en una interpretación en
sexteto de "Solid" de Sonny Rollins - "Una joya.
