▓████▓▌ [ A B O U T . T H i S . R E L E A S E ] ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ After years of being told what she ought to do by ▓▌
▓████▓▌ record companies and producers, and then putting up ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with being ignored thanks to the public's fanatic ▓▌
▓████▓▌ interest in rock & roll, virtuoso jazz singer ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Carter started her own label. After getting her ▓▌
▓████▓▌ feet wet with the first few releases, she came up ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with this double album, which some fans would ▓▌
▓████▓▌ consider her masterpiece. Eventually it was ▓▌
▓████▓▌ licensed to Verve. The set is as faithful as ▓▌
▓████▓▌ possible; a transcription of her nightclub sets ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with piano trio backing. Interestingly enough, it ▓▌
▓████▓▌ is not actually recorded at a nightclub per se, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ because the Great American Music Hall, formerly one ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of San Francisco's most posh bordellos, is actually ▓▌
▓████▓▌ more a small theatre, with the set up just intimate ▓▌
▓████▓▌ enough to pull off this kind of live recording. A ▓▌
▓████▓▌ pity that the singer herself had to fund the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ project, because, in 1980, it was much more ▓▌
▓████▓▌ expensive and complicated to record live than it ▓▌
▓████▓▌ would become decades later with new technology. And ▓▌
▓████▓▌ no doubt Carter had to cut a few corners and make ▓▌
▓████▓▌ do with the results. So, most listeners will have ▓▌
▓████▓▌ some quibble with the sound, wishing, for example, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ for much more piano presence, more clarity from the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ drums, and so forth. This would have to be the only ▓▌
▓████▓▌ complaints that could be allowed over this ▓▌
▓████▓▌ material, recorded over three nights, and no doubt ▓▌
▓████▓▌ allowing plenty of choice of takes. "Sounds (Movin' ▓▌
▓████▓▌ On)" is Carter's "Chasin' the Trane": it is a bit ▓▌
▓████▓▌ more than 25 minutes worth of vocal improvisation, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ use of the voice as an instrument in interplay with ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the other musicians, and, above all, sheer energy, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ which is one thing it definitely has in common with ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the aforementioned Coltrane performance. Another ▓▌
▓████▓▌ thing in common with Coltrane would be the pianist, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ John Hicks, who comes out of McCoy Tyner, the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ saxophonist's main piano accompanist. Hicks goes ▓▌
▓████▓▌ just about as far out as his notoriously ▓▌
▓████▓▌ anti-avant-garde boss will allow in these ▓▌
▓████▓▌ circumstances. The remaining three sides are a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ mixture of standards and songs written by Carter. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Her songwriting talents are an area that has ▓▌
▓████▓▌ definitely been overshadowed by her singing chops ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in terms of critical reception. The fourth side of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ this set, which consists almost totally of her ▓▌
▓████▓▌ originals, is a good place for one to explore the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ beautiful, tough-minded songs she writes. Other ▓▌
▓████▓▌ high points are the lovely exploration of "Spring ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Can Really Hang You Up the Most" and, of course, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the fast numbers. There is not a singer alive that ▓▌
▓████▓▌ takes on the tempos Betty Carter does, and it is a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ good thing, too. Otherwise, the cardiac wards would ▓▌
▓████▓▌ be full of drummers and there would be no room for ▓▌
▓████▓▌ anyone else to get treatment. An interesting choice ▓▌
▓████▓▌ amongst the songs is a version of "Caribbean Sun," ▓▌
▓████▓▌ written by the under-appreciated saxophonist Carlos ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Garnett ▓▌
