George Lewis • The Beverly Caverns Sessions

 

Caverns Sessions Review
by Scott Yanow
Clarinetist George Lewis and his usual band of this period (which consisted of trumpeter Kid Howard, trombonist Jim Robinson, pianist Alton Purnell, Lawrence Marrero on banjo, bassist Slow Drag Pavageau and drummer Joe Watkins) are in better-than-average form on this well-recorded live set. Lewis and his group emphasize ensembles on the dozen New Orleans standards and the clarinetist/leader is in surprisingly extroverted form, easily the most impressive soloist. Fans of traditional jazz should go out of their way to pick up this CD. These performances were released for the first time in 1994.

Reseña de Caverns Sessions
por Scott Yanow
El clarinetista George Lewis y su banda habitual de este periodo (que consistía en el trompetista Kid Howard, el trombonista Jim Robinson, el pianista Alton Purnell, Lawrence Marrero al banjo, el bajista Slow Drag Pavageau y el batería Joe Watkins) están en mejor forma que la media en este set en directo bien grabado. Lewis y su grupo hacen hincapié en los conjuntos en la docena de estándares de Nueva Orleans y el clarinetista/líder está en una forma sorprendentemente extrovertida, siendo fácilmente el solista más impresionante. Los aficionados al jazz tradicional no deberían perderse este CD. Estas interpretaciones se publicaron por primera vez en 1994.
