Музыка и песни Raney, Jimmy / Raney, Jimmy на CD

Artist: AL HAIG & JIMMY RANEY Label: ABSORD MUSIC JAPAN

Альбом включает семь сессий периода 1949-50 и одну 1953 года, показывающих становление великого саксофониста Стена Гетца. Где-то Стен играет с Септетом Терри Гиббса, с квартетом пианиста Эла Хейга (Al Haig) или пианиста Тони Алесса (Tony Aless) в составе секстета Хейга. Также присутствуют совместные работы с другими саксофонистами (Al Cohn, Allen Eager, Brew Moore и Zoot Sims). При слышимом унисоне все равно уже тогда можно было отличить Гетца! Сборник дает широкий обзор раннего маэстро.

AVID Jazz here presents four classic Jimmy Raney albums plus including original LP liner notes on a finely re-mastered and low priced double CD. A much travelled jazz guitarist Jimmy Raney was born in Louisville Kentucky in 1927, the son of a prominent newspaperman. Starting his musical career in 1944 with the Jerry Wald band, Jimmy would spend time with among others Max Miller and Lou Levy, toured with Woody Herman, worked with Al Haig, Buddy De Franco and Artie Shaw and in 1950 joined up with the Stan Getz Quintet to produce a unique sounding combo sound during their two years together. By 1953 he was on the move again this time hooking up with Red Norvo. Along the way Jimmy found time to make his own music and take the opportunity of being the frontman instead of the sideman. Our four selections find him joined by among others Hall Overton on piano, Red Mitchell on bass and Osie Johnson on drums for “A” and our single track from “In Three Attitudes” the wonderful “Indian Summer”.
