Reviews: A compilation of two mid-60’s LP’s on the German Saba label (Happy Girl & The Hip Walk), Two Originals is a very solid set, containing several great examples of inside/outside playing. Featuring Davis (who has spent the last 30 years as a music educator) on tenor, flute and Trane-inflected soprano on many originals, a few well selected standards and tunes by Larry Young and Carmell Jones, it has rapidly become one of my favorite discs. Davis is a player of great range and exceedingly good taste, with an alternately biting/warm tone not

to Europe? too far removed from Joe Henderson’s playing in the same era. This is easiest to see in the version of Larry Young’s ‘Theme From Zoltan’, previously recorded by Young (on organ) and Shaw with Henderson on Young’s essential ‘Unity’ (one of the recent series of ‘Rudy Van Gelder’ re-issues on Blue Note and a must have). Other standouts are ‘The Flute In The Blues’, ‘Evolution’ and ‘The Hip Walk’. If you can find this at the store grab it. If you can’t, try the internet. If that fails, what better excuse for a timely trip to Europe?

Ce compact est constitué par la réédition de deux vinyls Happy Girl et The Hip Walk, édités par MPS respectivement en 1965 et 1966. Produits par Joachim Ernst Berendt, ces deux albums étaient depuis longtemps des objets de collection prisés des spécialistes. En les rééditant, MPS va enfin permettre au plus grand nombre d'accéder à ces deux joyaux méconnus du jazz postbop. Car s'il est bien un musicien à inscrire au panthéon des jazzmen sous-estimés, c'est bien Nathan Davis, ce ténor de Kansas City qui s'est surtout fait connaître en Europe dans les années soixante, en Allemagne et à Paris où il a joué au Club Saint-Germain et au Chat Qui Pêche. Visiblement influencé par Coltrane, il produit néanmoins de solos où prime l'amour de la belle mélodie, aux harmonies simples.		Compositeur de la majorité des thèmes, on reconnaît là encore le mélodiste. Il en surprendra plus d'un à la flûte dans le thème qui ouvre ce compact accompagné uniquement à la basse et à la batterie. Signalons que dans la deuxième partie de cet album (pistes 8 à 14), il est accompagné par une rythmique de rêve, celle du Clarke-Boland Big Band avec le grand Kenny Clarke - l'inventeur de la batterie moderne - Francy Boland, pianiste Belge trop peu connu et Jimmy Woode, ancien bassiste de l'orchestre de Duke Ellington. On notera ici aussi la présence du trompettiste Carmell Jones que Nathan Davis fit venir des USA pour cette séance, notamment dans le but de l'aider à se sortir de mauvaises habitudes. Un parangon.

All compositions by Horace Silver.

Review: In 1964, responding to producer Alfred Lion's encouragements, Horace Silver ended a five-year run with his quintet and got himself some new players. Volume Two of this best of collection opens with the new quintet's classic 'Song for My Father' - a warm, evocative, uniquely Horace Silver-like tune said to be a homage to his Cape Verdean roots. Silver's solo is understated and carries itself with a royal bearing. The new group is also heard on the laid back and minimal 'Que Pasa', a one-chord, hypnotic vamp. 'Cape Verdean Blues' is one of Silver's best commercial, sexy, and wrapped around some simple yet outstanding piano playing. On 1966's 'Jody Grind', Tyrone Washington capably replaces Joe Henderson on tenor sax and Silver turns in a great solo, exploring melodic ideas that other players might reject because of their straight-forwardness. The album ends with 1972's 'Gregory Is Here'. Silver's new quintet includes the young Brecker Brothers on trumpet and sax, in an interesting marriage of the '60s and '70s.

Granted, a single-disc overview of Blue Note's finest recordings can't help but offer listeners more than a myopic view of the label's true scope, but for jazz neophytes, this nine-track collection will undoubtedly serve as a tantalizing taste of the company's riches. The song selection, though lacking few surprises, is consistently wonderful - how could a disc featuring John Coltrane's ‘BlueTrain’, Herbie Hancock's ‘Maiden Voyage’, Horace Silver's ’Song for My Father’ and Lee Mor- gan's ‘The Sidewinder’ be anything but? - and purists' complaints aside, for new fans it's a solid introduction to the Blue Note magic.

Review: Very cool Blue Note compilation of stuff that was recorded (mostly) by the Pacific Jazz label in the early 60's, but which is now in the Blue Note/EMI catalog. The comp focuses on the harder side of the LA scene, and features on many of the great Los Angeles soul jazz players - many of whom often get neglected in discussions of that city's Cool Jazz scene. There's loads of nice cuts, and the whole

thing wails nicely. Highlights include 'Burnin' by Paul Bryant, 'Where It's At' by Charles Kynard, 'Montgomeryland Funk' by The Montgomery Brothers, 'Turkish Black' by The Jazz Crusaders, 'Sad March' by Carmell Jones, 'This Here' by Groove Holmes, 'Pygmy' by Billy Larkin & The Delegates, and 'Soul Sisters' by Lennie McBrownie & The Four Souls. Nice stuff, with 17 cuts in all !
