undergroundagent Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 How's this session? I'm use to Bryant in bigger band settings, but this seems to be a distinctly smaller (though still larger than most soul-jazz sessions) album. Any recommendations?

Dan Gould Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 Well, not sure that its "larger" than most soul-jazz dates, its Bryant, Hadley Caliman and Herman Riley on tenor, and a rhythm section of Joe Sample, John Duke and Carl Lott. I was just listening to my copy of the LP this week-its decent soul jazz, pleasant but not earth-shattering. If the price is right, go for it, just don't expect to be totally blown away.

JSngry Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 This is the album that earned me a spot of notoriety amongst a few good friends because I bought it, brought it to a listening session, did a series of samples, and proceeded to bitch that there wasn't enough tenor playing on it. I don't give a damn who's date it is, if Hadley Calliman's on it, I WANT SOME TENOR! Seriously, it's ok. Nice version of "Sunny". I totally agree with Dan's assessment. But it would have been a HELLUVA lot better with more tenor on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
