Art Farmer & Gigi Gryce • When Farmer Met Gryce

 

Review by Scott Yanow
When Farmer Met Gryce features trumpeter Art Farmer, altoist Gigi Gryce and two rhythm sections with either Horace Silver or Freddie Redd on piano, Percy Heath or Addison Farmer on bass, and Kenny Clarke or Art Taylor on drums. The early hard bop music is highlighted by "Social Call" (one of Gryce's best-known compositions), "Capri," "A Night at Tony's" and "Blue Concept" but all eight numbers will easily be enjoyed by straight-ahead jazz fans.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
When Farmer Met Gryce cuenta con el trompetista Art Farmer, la contralto Gigi Gryce y dos secciones rítmicas con Horace Silver o Freddie Redd al piano, Percy Heath o Addison Farmer al bajo, y Kenny Clarke o Art Taylor a la batería. La música hard bop temprana se destaca por «Social Call» (una de las composiciones más conocidas de Gryce), «Capri», «A Night at Tony's» y «Blue Concept», pero los ocho números serán fácilmente disfrutados por los aficionados al jazz directo.
