Benny Golson • Groovin' With Golson

  



Review
by Scott Yanow
This is one of at least four recordings that matched up tenor saxophonist Benny Golson and trombonist Curtis Fuller prior to the formation of the Jazztet; ironically, Fuller only stuck around for one Jazztet record before departing. Reissued on CD, the LP-length program has two lesser-known Golson compositions along with "Drum Boogie," "I Didn't Know What Time It Was," and "Yesterdays." Three of the tunes are blues, and the two ballads are taken at a medium-tempo pace. With pianist Ray Bryant, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Art Blakey forming a solid rhythm section, the hard bop music does indeed groove in its own fashion.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Esta es una de las al menos cuatro grabaciones que emparejaron al saxofonista tenor Benny Golson y al trombonista Curtis Fuller antes de la formación del Jazztet; irónicamente, Fuller sólo se quedó para un disco del Jazztet antes de marcharse. Reeditado en CD, el programa de duración LP tiene dos composiciones menos conocidas de Golson junto con "Drum Boogie", "I Didn't Know What Time It Was" y "Yesterdays". Tres de los temas son blues, y las dos baladas se interpretan a un ritmo medio. Con el pianista Ray Bryant, el bajista Paul Chambers y el batería Art Blakey formando una sólida sección rítmica, la música hard bop se mueve a su manera.
