▓████▓▌ [ A B O U T . T H i S . R E L E A S E ] ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ One of the last great Horace Silver albums for Blue ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Note, Serenade to a Soul Sister is also one of the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ pianist's most infectiously cheerful, good-humored ▓▌
▓████▓▌ outings. It was recorded at two separate early-1968 ▓▌
▓████▓▌ sessions with two mostly different quintets, both ▓▌
▓████▓▌ featuring trumpeter Charles Tolliver and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ alternating tenor saxophonists Stanley Turrentine ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and Bennie Maupin, bassists Bob Cranshaw and John ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Williams, and drummers Mickey Roker and Billy ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Cobham. (Williams and Cobham were making some of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ their first recorded appearances since exiting the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ military.) Silver's economical, rhythmic piano ▓▌
▓████▓▌ style had often been described as funky, but the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ fantastic opener "Psychedelic Sally" makes that ▓▌
▓████▓▌ connection more explicit and contemporary, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ featuring a jubilant horn theme and a funky bass ▓▌
▓████▓▌ riff that both smack of Memphis soul. (In fact, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ it's kind of a shame he didn't pursue this idea ▓▌
▓████▓▌ more.) Keeping the album's playful spirit going, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Rain Dance" is a campy American Indian-style ▓▌
▓████▓▌ theme, and "Jungle Juice" has a mysterious sort of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ exotic, tribal flavor. "Kindred Spirits" has a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ different, more ethereal sort of mystery, and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Serenade to a Soul Sister" is a warm, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ loose-swinging tribute. You'd never know this album ▓▌
▓████▓▌ was recorded in one of the most tumultuous years in ▓▌
▓████▓▌ American history, but as Silver says in the liner ▓▌
▓████▓▌ notes' indirect jab at the avant-garde, he simply ▓▌
▓████▓▌ didn't believe in allowing "politics, hatred, or ▓▌
▓████▓▌ anger" into his music. Whether you agree with that ▓▌
▓████▓▌ philosophy or not, it's hard to argue with musical ▓▌
▓████▓▌ results as joyous and tightly performed as Serenade ▓▌
▓████▓▌ to a Soul Sister. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ *************************************************** ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ From the perspective of the late '90s, it is clear ▓▌
▓████▓▌ that few jazz musicians have had a greater impact ▓▌
▓████▓▌ on the contemporary mainstream than Horace Silver. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ The hard bop style that Silver pioneered in the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ '50s is now dominant, played not only by holdovers ▓▌
▓████▓▌ from an earlier generation, but also by ▓▌
▓████▓▌ fuzzy-cheeked musicians who had yet to be born when ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the music fell out of critical favor in the '60s ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and '70s. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver's earliest musical influence was the Cape ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Verdean folk music he heard from his Portugese-born ▓▌
▓████▓▌ father. Later, after he had begun playing piano and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ saxophone as a high schooler, Silver came under the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ spell of blues singers and boogie-woogie pianists, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ as well as boppers like Thelonious Monk and Bud ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Powell. In 1950, Stan Getz played a concert in ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Hartford, Connecticut, with a pickup rhythm section ▓▌
▓████▓▌ that included Silver, drummer Walter Bolden, and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ bassist Joe Calloway. So impressed was Getz, he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ hired the whole trio. Silver had been saving his ▓▌
▓████▓▌ money to move to New York anyway; his hiring by ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Getz sealed the deal. Silver worked with Getz for a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ year, then began to freelance around the city with ▓▌
▓████▓▌ such big-time players as Coleman Hawkins, Lester ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Young, and Oscar Pettiford. In 1952, he recorded ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with Lou Donaldson for the Blue Note label; this ▓▌
▓████▓▌ date led him to his first recordings as a leader. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ In 1953, he joined forces with Art Blakey to form a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ cooperative under their joint leadership. The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ band's first album, Horace Silver and the Jazz ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Messengers, was a milestone in the development of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the genre that came to be known as hard bop. Many ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of the tunes penned by Silver for that record -- ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "The Preacher," "Doodlin'," "Room 608" -- became ▓▌
▓████▓▌ jazz classics. By 1956, Silver had left the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Messengers to record on his own. The series of Blue ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Note albums that followed established Silver for ▓▌
▓████▓▌ all time as one of jazz's major composer/pianists. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ LPs like Blowin' the Blues Away and Song for My ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Father (both recorded by an ensemble which included ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver's longtime sidemen Blue Mitchell and Junior ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Cook) featured Silver's harmonically sophisticated ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and formally distinctive compositions for small ▓▌
▓████▓▌ jazz ensemble. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver's piano style -- terse, imaginative, and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ utterly funky -- became a model for subsequent ▓▌
▓████▓▌ mainstream pianists to emulate. Some of the most ▓▌
▓████▓▌ influential horn players of the '50s,'60s, and '70s ▓▌
▓████▓▌ first attained a measure of prominence with Silver ▓▌
▓████▓▌ -- musicians like Donald Byrd, Woody Shaw, Joe ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Henderson, Benny Golson, and the Brecker brothers ▓▌
▓████▓▌ all played in Silver's band at a point early in ▓▌
▓████▓▌ their careers. Silver has even affected members of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the avant-garde; Cecil Taylor confesses a Silver ▓▌
▓████▓▌ influence, and trumpeter Dave Douglas played ▓▌
▓████▓▌ briefly in a Silver combo. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver recorded exclusively for Blue Note until ▓▌
▓████▓▌ that label's eclipse in the late '70s, whereupon he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ started his own label, Silveto. Silver's '80s work ▓▌
▓████▓▌ was poorly distributed. During that time he began ▓▌
▓████▓▌ writing lyrics to his compositions; his work began ▓▌
▓████▓▌ to display a concern with music's metaphysical ▓▌
▓████▓▌ powers, as exemplified by album titles like Music ▓▌
▓████▓▌ to Ease Your Disease and Spritualizing Your Senses. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ In the '90s, Silver abandoned his label venture and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ began recording for Columbia. With his re-emergence ▓▌
▓████▓▌ on a major label, Silver is once again receiving a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ measure of the attention his contribution deserves. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Certainly, no one has ever contributed a larger and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ more vital body of original compositions to the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ jazz canon. ▓▌
