▓████▓▌ [ A B O U T . T H i S . R E L E A S E ] ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Two sessions in the mid-'50s produced the material ▓▌
▓████▓▌ for this album, which despite or perhaps because of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ being one of the historical early recordings of the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Horace Silver Quintet, was later treated to a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ confusing mess of reissues, some of which never ▓▌
▓████▓▌ really mentioned what was so historic about the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ material in the first place. Maybe there was no ▓▌
▓████▓▌ reason to, since by the new millennium the type of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ groovy, funky jazz Silver was famous for had become ▓▌
▓████▓▌ so in demand that any recording of the authentic ▓▌
▓████▓▌ item was considered coated with golden fairy dust. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ In the late '80s, when this particular imprint was ▓▌
▓████▓▌ released on the public, just the fact that it was a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ reissue of something old seemed to be enough. The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ liner notes begin with a pretentious description of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the lengths to which the geniuses who remastered ▓▌
▓████▓▌ this went, in order to not only preserve the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ integrity of the original tapes but to bring them ▓▌
▓████▓▌ up to the standards of the era. Which everyone ▓▌
▓████▓▌ knows were no standards and, anyway, these tapes ▓▌
▓████▓▌ sounded fantastic in the first place. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ First off, the liner notes should have said, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Listen to Hank Mobley." The tenor saxophonist is ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the first to solo on the title track, and what a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ beautiful improvisation it is, always centered ▓▌
▓████▓▌ around the blues but twisting through some melodic ▓▌
▓████▓▌ turns of phrases that reference folk songs and who ▓▌
▓████▓▌ knows what else. Besides the pianist, who is in his ▓▌
▓████▓▌ usual tasty form, it is Mobley who makes this album ▓▌
▓████▓▌ really breathe, as neither trumpeter will really ▓▌
▓████▓▌ knock one's socks off. Joe Gordon is a bit ▓▌
▓████▓▌ undersung, true, but he also has a pinched sound in ▓▌
▓████▓▌ the upper register and a habit of noodling his way ▓▌
▓████▓▌ from change to change as if he felt inspiration was ▓▌
▓████▓▌ just around the corner. For the second session he ▓▌
▓████▓▌ is replaced by Donald Byrd, who has his moments ▓▌
▓████▓▌ despite relying on stock phrases at times when the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ intensity of his solo is just building up. The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ arrangement of "How Long Has This Been Going On?" ▓▌
▓████▓▌ is refreshingly quiet and gentle, showing that ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver had more than one direction and bringing ▓▌
▓████▓▌ forth another type of tone from Mobley, all velvet ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and feathers. Songwriter Frank Loesser's "I'll ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Know" is also given a bright, catchy arrangement. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ The theme is stated in a series of slowly unfolding ▓▌
▓████▓▌ pronouncements building up to a great moment right ▓▌
▓████▓▌ before the solos start, when a strong medium-tempo ▓▌
▓████▓▌ groove comes in. On his solo, the pianist lays out ▓▌
▓████▓▌ his notes like a casino dealer providing cards all ▓▌
▓████▓▌ around to all the players, following blues licks ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with rapid chromatic bop devilments. The original ▓▌
▓████▓▌ "Shoutin' Out" is the kind of stuff Silver is ▓▌
▓████▓▌ really known for, and it is fantastic. The fine ▓▌
▓████▓▌ drummer Kenny Clarke, who always played well with ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Silver, is on hand throughout, and two excellent ▓▌
▓████▓▌ bassists alternate, Doug Watkins and Art Taylor. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Neither man was capable of playing a wasted note. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Bon Appetit !! ▓▌
