It's Not "In The Bag", November 23, 2008
This review is from: In the Bag (Audio CD)
Nat Adderley has some terrific albums in the OJC series, but unfortunately "In The Bag" is not one of them. The playing on this date is phenomenal, as Nat, brother "Cannonball" and Sam Jones join New Orleans greats including Ellis Marsalis (that's right Wynton and Branford's pops) for a big easy jam session. The only problem is the sound quality is rather poor, with the horns too bright and the drums too brittle. If only they would have cut this date in New Jersey (with Rudy Van Gelder as engineer) instead of New Orleans, it might have been a true classic. It's a real shame to see so many of the OJC CDs going out-of-print, but I guess in cases like this it's understandable.
