Few jazz musicians did more to introduce American audiences
to the Latin-jazz fusion than flutist Herbie Mann, whose pop
crossovers ù a generous soul would describe them as "easy to
digest" ù were heard by many more listeners than the work of
artistic innovators like Machito or Antonio Carlos Jobim.
Though he wasn't exactly a trailblazer, Mann recorded a lot
of exemplary music, and two of his earliest and most vital
dates are heard on Afro-Jazziac Bop, a 2003 compilation
released by Fuel 2000. (The same items also appear on a 1999
Entertainers collection titled Brazilian Soft Shoe.)
Comprising a pair of co-billed LPs recorded just before he
formed his Afro-Jazz Sextet in 1959, the disc includes music
originally heard on the 1959 Roulette LP Machito With Flute
to Boot and the 1958 Mode LP Flute Fraternity (with Buddy
Collette). For the first, Mann is featured in front of
Machito's Orchestra, with the addition of Johnny Griffin on
tenor and Curtis Fuller on trombone. His jaunty solos fit in
well with Machito's stately swing, while the titles
alternate boppish experiments ("To Birdland and Hurry") with
evocative overseas postcards ("African Flute," "Calypso
John"). The other session is a slim and limber West Coast
date, featuring Mann and fellow reed player Collette
playfully trading solos ù in fact, "Herbie's Buddy" has them
interacting first on flute, then tenor, then clarinet. Taken
together, the two sets heard on Afro-Jazziac Bop don't equal
his Savoy work of the same time, but both of them equal or
go beyond his more popular Atlantic records. ù John Bush
