| | Here is a new jazz release that features 18 tight songs all over | |
| | the stylistic map, from moody meditations to funky blues to | |
| | soulful swing. If you didnÆt know who created it, you might guess | |
| | it was a young composer trying his or her hand at different | |
| | genresùyet there is a notable confidence to the songs and a | |
| | relaxed skill to the presentation. No wonder: this is Chico | |
| | HamiltonÆs latest album. At 88 years old, with more than 50 | |
| | albums to his name, the master drummer may be living proof that | |
| | creativity keeps you young. | |
| | | |
| | Chico Hamilton began his career in the 1940s as sidemen to greats | |
| | such as Lester Young and Billie Holiday. He became a band leader | |
| | in the æ50s (making a brief but memorable appearance in the | |
| | all-time-great movie Sweet Smell of Success). He has worked with | |
| | greats from Eric Dolphy to Larry Coryell, and he has never slowed | |
| | down. | |
| | | |
| | The very fine ôTwelve Tones of Love,ö on the Joyous Shout! label | |
| | features Hamilton doing what he does best: assembling talent both | |
| | young and old, composing songs and laying down flawless rhythm | |
| | for the band. Fifteen of the 18 songs are new and written by | |
| | Hamilton. Unlike many marquee-name drummers, Hamilton doesnÆt put | |
| | his drums out front. There are no drummer solos here; no crashing | |
| | intrusions; just an intelligent, shifting tempo that both drives | |
| | and complements the other players. | |
| | | |
| | While a few of the songs on ôTwelve Tones of Loveö have an | |
| | elegiac feel, more of them are playful and teasing. Hamilton | |
| | loves to shift moods with rhythm changes, and somehow (years of | |
| | practice, no doubt) makes it always feel just right. The players | |
| | heÆs assembled here take turns in the spotlight and are clearly | |
| | having loads of fun. Some of the highlights on this album are | |
| | ôNonchalant,ö a quiet, expressive blues; ôPenthouse A,ö a | |
| | laid-back bossa nova vamp; and ôSteinway,ö with a cool Afro-Cuban | |
| | rhythm. | |
