Ray Brown • Something For Lester

 

Review by Scott Yanow (AllMusic):
This excellent trio session forms a sort of transition between bassist Ray Brown's work with the Oscar Peterson Trio and his own small-group sessions of the '80s and '90s. With pianist Cedar Walton and drummer Elvin Jones, Brown explores seven strong melodies (four standards, two by Walton, and the bassist's "Slippery") in typically swinging and bluish fashion.

Reseña de Scott Yanow (AllMusic) - Traducción:
Esta excelente sesión de trío forma una especie de transición entre el trabajo del bajista Ray Brown con el Oscar Peterson Trio y sus propias sesiones de grupos pequeños de los años 80 y 90. Con el pianista Cedar Walton y el baterista Elvin Jones, Brown explora siete melodías fuertes (cuatro estándares, dos de Walton, y "Slippery" del bajista) de manera típicamente swinging y con toques bluesy.
