5.0 out of 5 stars
A different approach to playing the saxophone., December 25, 1999
This review is from: Gettin Together (Audio CD)
Art Pepper's musical ability shines on this C.D. The first thing I notice when listening, is Art's sound. His sound is like a small brook flowing through a wooded area and bustling Los Angeles all at once. Art Pepper was an individual player. Although many players were out trying to be Charlie Parker clones, he stuck to his thing. The final track, "The Way You Look Tonight" is a jazz standard played by many. Art approaches this song melodically and builds his solo quite nicely. In my opinion, this is the best track on the CD. This CD makes an excellent addition to my collection. Bringing Art Pepper into your listening vocabulary is a smart and rewarding thing to do and this CD is a great way to start.
