Исполнитель: Bobby HutchersonНазвание альбома: Spiral Год выпуска: 1968 Формат файлов: MP3@320K/s Размер архива: 141,1 MB Скачать с: rusfolder.com Recorded in 1968 but not issued until 1979, Spiral marks the first time that the official lineup of the Bobby Hutcherson-Harold Land Quintet which also included pianist Stanley Cowell, bassist Reggie Johnson, and drummer Joe Chambers recorded together.
(The first Hutcherson-Land album, Total Eclipse, featured Chick Corea on piano.) In one sense, it's understandable why this music stayed on the shelf for over a decade: it didn't fit the late-'60s zeitgeist. It had nothing to do with fusion, and it wasn't aggressively far-out like much of the avant-garde had gotten. Yet, on the other hand, it isn't so understandable the music was quite good, often excellent, and the quintet had a knack for making sophisticated, mainstream-leaning modal post-bop sound surprisingly soulful. Hutcherson, Land, Chambers, and Cowell all contribute compositions, making Spiral truly a group effort; Chambers in particular proves once again what an overlooked composer he was, but really, all the pieces are strong.
Yet another unimpeachably solid Hutcherson session. [Note: The original LP version of Spiral contained "Jasper," an Andrew Hill-penned outtake from the 1965 Dialogue session that didn't really fit with all the Hutcherson-Land cuts. When Blue Note reissued Spiral as part of a CD two-fer with Medina, "Jasper" was excised and included on Dialogue as a bonus track.] ~ Steve Huey
