Исполнитель: Dr. Lonnie SmithНазвание альбома: In the Beginning Год выпуска: 2013 Формат файлов: mp3 320kbps cbr Размер архива: 260mb rar Скачать с: rusfolder B-3 specialist Dr. Lonnie Smith retools a dozen original compositions from early in his career and performs them live with an octet on In the Beginning, Volumes 1 & 2. Drawing material from his recordings, Finger-Lickin’ Good (1966), Think! (1968), Turning Point (1969) and Move Your Hand (1969), Smith, with the help of saxophonist Ian Hendrickson-Smith, cast this music against the rich palette of a horn-heavy little-big band. On these recordings, what Smith proves is that he is the master of his corner of the organ jazz universe. He is not Jimmy Smith or Big Big John Patton. While Smith’s music is informed by the blues, it is ultimately a broader taste test of genre when compared with those and other organists. Smith mixes rhythms like a mad, but gifted, alchemist, crossing Latin and African rhythms with the Far East and Western Europe. While “Falling In Love” is a pastoral rave-up featuring Ed Cherry’s James-Brown- funk-laden guitar and “Turning Point” smacks of Stan Kenton on a bender, “In The Beginning” takes on an almost classical flair. While this music is dated, its updating is timeless. These tunes are a snapshot of a progressive period in jazz where the old gave way to the new. Smith made these transitions thoughtfully, acting as much as the keeper of the flame and a future firebrand, with his creative eyes in both directions. The octet for this occasion fully fleshes out the music giving it a defined, three-dimensions. ~ AAJ
