Teddy Wilson Trio • Revisits the Goodman Years

 

Review by Scott Yanow
Teddy Wilson, age 67 at the time of these trio sides, was predictably excellent throughout his long career, never recording a dull or indifferent record. In fact, more than just about any jazz musician, his style remained immune to outside influences ever since the swing era, so do not look for any McCoy Tyner or Bill Evans chord voicings on this LP. Wilson, along with bassist Jesper Lundgaard and drummer Ed Thigpen, plays a dozen songs that he had performed with Benny Goodman during the 1935-38 period. Fun and swinging music.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Teddy Wilson, que tenía 67 años en el momento de grabar estos temas a trío, fue, como era de esperar, excelente a lo largo de su dilatada carrera, sin grabar nunca un disco aburrido o indiferente. De hecho, más que cualquier otro músico de jazz, su estilo se mantuvo inmune a las influencias externas desde la era del swing, por lo que no hay que buscar en este LP los acordes de McCoy Tyner o Bill Evans. Wilson, junto con el bajista Jesper Lundgaard y el baterista Ed Thigpen, interpreta una docena de canciones que había tocado con Benny Goodman durante el periodo 1935-38. Música divertida y con swing.
