jazzbo Posted April 12 Posted April 12 This is the first time I have spun this since Rev. Jackson passed. Cannonball Adderley Quintet “Country Preacher” Capitol cd I forget how powerful this disc is. This Quintet had paid its dues and their funkiness here comes right from the expertise in jazz performance they amassed working together. It’s blues, jazz, all music out of one source according to Cannon here. Cannonball’s playing is so gut and flow but always, on soprano or alto, has a beauty of its own, an inevitablity from his skill, that sort of melodic beauty and inevitability of Bird, or the Rabbit on alto. . . . Great stuff. Zawinul really shines here. Quote

Gheorghe Posted April 12 Posted April 12 I saw exactly that group in Europe. It was some of my greatest experiences in my life! Quote
Simon8 Posted April 12 Posted April 12 (edited) Damn! That title cut ("C") is INTENSE. Richie Beirach somehow combines Paul Bley and Don Pullen (!) in a pile-driving solo. Bergcrantz follows suit (goaded by a wired-up member of the audience? or drummer Nussbaum?) Great vibe! Edited April 12 by Simon8 Quote
