THE BIG SOUND is a companion to GROOVE BLUES. Both albums were recorded on a single day in 1958 and feature an impressive array of players. Ammons’’ tenor saxophone is joined here by John Coltrane’’s alto, Paul Quinichette’’s tenor, Pepper Adams’’ alto, and Jerome Richardson’’s flute. The rhythm section is anchored by the piano of Mal Waldron. The set opens with the slow blues “Blue Hymn,” an Ammons original. Waldron’’s “The Real McCoy” then kicks things into higher gear with an excitingly propulsive arrangement. The massed horns state the tune’’s main theme before breaking off into furious soloing. Likewise, Irving Berlin’’s “Cheek to Cheek” swings at a clip at once laid back and relentless. As with GROOVE BLUES, the album closes with a ballad, the song form forever linked with Ammons.

AMG:
Along with its fellow CD, Groove Blues, this reissue fully documents all of the music recorded by tenor saxophonist Gene Ammons on the busy day of January 3, 1958. Although there were many guest soloists, only one of the four songs on this half of the set (Mal Waldron’’s “The Real McCoy") has appearances by John Coltrane (on alto) and the tenor of Paul Quinichette. However, baritonist Pepper Adams is aboard for two of the performances, and flutist Jerome Richardson (along with pianist Mal Waldron, bassist George Joyner, and drummer Art Taylor) are on all four. Ammons is easily the main star (he really excelled in this setting) and is in generally fine form on the two standards ("That’’s All” and “Cheek to Cheek"), his own “Blue Hymn,” and the Waldron original.
