[Dixielandjazz] Boogie Woogie

[Marek Boym]

Hi,
I  can recomment the boogie woogie album to anybody who hasn't already got
the material, or most of it - I have most of it on LPs.
Likewise, Hampton with The Just Jazz All Stars is absolutely fantastic!
Cheers

> Impressions of Rodgers & Hart - Pal Joey"
> > Perhaps unfairly overlooked in a crowded field of great jazz pianists
> around during his time from Monk, Bud Powell, Horace Silver to Wynton
> Kelly, Kenny Drew finally got to record this his first album in 1953.
> Having established himself at last through playing with the likes of
> Coleman Hawkins, Stan Getz and Lester Young he and his fine quartet were
> finally on their way and touring through 1952 and 1953. Here he is joined
> on "Introducing Kenny Drew" by Curly Russell on bass and the inimitable
> powerhouse Art Blakey on drums. For "This Is New" recorded through March
> and April 1957, Kenny’s reputation was now reflected in the band members he
> was attracting. Here we find him in the company of Donald Byrd on trumpet ,
> Hank Mobley on tenor, Wilbur Ware on bass and G.T.Hogan on drums. This is
> current jazz, played by young musicians with considerable experience in the
> post or hard bop school coming up via the influence of Bird, Dizzy and
> Monk. "Talkin’& Walkin’" features the Kenny Drew Quartet from 1955 with Joe
> Maini on alto and tenor, Leroy Vinnegar on bass and Lawrence Marable on
> drums. The message here is one of simplicity……………keep it relaxed and
> natural, honest and unselfconscious. Finally "Jazz Impressions of Rodgers &
> Hart’s Pal Joey" a trio recording from New York in 1957 with Wilbur Ware on
> bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums. Here Drew takes five selections from
> the original Broadway show and adds three more Rodgers & Hart classics from
> the movie version to create "extremely meaty and rewarding material to work
> with". All four albums are plus have been digitally re-mastered. Some are
> also currently hard to find or expensive, so Avid are pleased to be able to
> make them available once again.

> > FOUR CLASSIC ALBUMS (BLOWIN’ COUNTRY / BUD SHANK WITH SHORTY ROGERS &
> BILL PERKINS / BUD SHANK AND THREE TROMBONES / JAZZ AT CAL-TECH)
> >
> > AVID Jazz here presents four classic (and hard to find or expensive) Bud
> Shank albums including original LP liner notes on a finely re-mastered and
> low     priced double CD.
> > "Blowin’ Country"; Bud Shank with Bill Perkins/Shorty Rogers"; "Bud
> Shank And Three Trombones" and "Jazz At Cal-Tech"
> > For our second excursion into "Shank-land" we kick off with the
> excellent "Blowin’ Country" (which has nothing to do with country music so
> "don’t panic!). This fine album sees another collaboration between two ex-
> Stan Kentonites, Bud Shank and Bob Cooper who both can be heard trading
> licks across tenor and alto sax, flute, oboe and bass clarinet. Joined by
> familiar "Shankites", Claude Williamson on piano, Don Prell on bass and
> Chuck Flores on drums. Our second release is an album of two sides……….on
> the first Bud is joined by another long term collaborator, the alto and
> tenor saxophonist Bill Perkins alongside Hampton Hawes on piano; Red
> Mitchell on bass and Mel Lewis on drums. The second side features Bud with
> the writer, arranger and musician Shorty Rogers accompanied by Jimmy Rowles
> on piano; Harry Babasin on bass and Roy Harte on drums. Shorty wrote all
> the selections and plays flugle horn throughout the set. CD2 kicks off with
> "Bud Shank And Three Trombones" which as they say in the ads, does just
> what it says on the tin……..or in this case cover! It links Bud on alto with
> the three valve trombones of Bob Enevoldsen, Maynard Ferguson and Stu
> Williamson (brother of Claude). The object being as it states on the
> original liner notes……"to place Shank’s alto in juxtoposition to a full
> section of valve trombones to enable him to play the role of a complete
> reed section against a three man brass team……………..instrumentation almost
> unique in jazz". The rest of the band is made up of long term associate
> Claude Williamson on piano, Joe Mondragon on bass and Shelly Manne on
> drums. We conclude with "Jazz At Cal Tech" recorded live in 1956 at the
> California Institute of Technology to an appreciative audience of science
> and engineering students. Shank is again joined by Bob Cooper on tenor and
> oboe, Claude Willamson on piano, Don Prell on bass and Chuck Flores on
> drums. All four albums are plus have been digitally re-mastered. Some are
> also currently hard to find or expensive, so Avid are pleased to be able to
> make them available once again.
