REVIEW:
Hank Jones’ relaxed, understated keyboard demeanor leaves lots of room for interplay with bassist Ron Carter and drummer Grady Tate. This is a nicely balanced session including the latin flavored title-track, Jones’ interpretation of two contemporary ballads penned by Sara Cassey, “Warm Blue Stream” and “Wind Flower” plus Harold Arlen’s 1934 standard “As Long As I Live.” The date’s highlight is Jones’ splendid rendition of the Richard Rodgers waltz “Oh, What a Beautiful Morning.” The familiar melody is exquisitely reharmonized and a rhythmic interlude is inserted between sections. (A solo piano version of this arrangement was recorded in 1977 and is included in the Smithsonian Jazz Piano collection.) Claus Ogerman’s “Favors” is a Jones favorite, appearing on two subsequent live releases by the pianist. “Minor Contemplation,” a hard-driving bop line, is the only Jones original. All in all, an excellent offering from an undisputed master.

well, first things first: here's a guest post so stellar that it was sent to me by two different readers, froz1 and tavanadaniel. i wanna thank you guys both, this is great music, from the magical strata-east.

this was recorded on two dates in 1975 and 1979, and marks one of the last records issued by Strata-East in its golden age. last, but not least. with the label's commitment to creative challenges, here's a band where a bunch of bass players step out in front for some deep deep sounds, plucking and bowing and slapping their way to a really unusual but really awesome record. you'll be reminded that for all its funk credentials, the bass is just big brother to the cello. it's the brainchild of bill lee, who seems to have understood harmony in a really profound way. as for standout tracks there's a terrific version of "john coltrane" also found back on clifford jordan's "glass bead games."

don't forget to browse through the strata-east fan club;
there's a few links there you won't find anywhere else and a whole lot of great music.
