mrjazzman Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Whenever possible, I listen to sound samples before I purchase a cd. Just listened to sound samples of Relaxin' With Nick and I almost fell asleep. Totally messed up that beautiful Benny Golson standard Stablemates. I don't know what these guys are doing these days. I don't get it, can't hear it. His music has not always sounded like this, I love "Letters" liked Payton's Place, Mysterious Shorter and Gumbo Nouveau. So, why now? I'm 71 years old, maybe I'm too old. Thank God for guys like Vincent Herring (just listened to Preaching To The Choir), Cory Weeds and others who don't have a problem continuing the tradition of be and hard bop. Just my opinions.
