5.0 out of 5 stars
Essential Music,
By "dcjazzfan" (Washington DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Goin to Minton's (Audio CD)
This CD includes some essential early bebop jazz. It follows Navarro's career in the studios from 1946 to late 1947. Included are an all-star octet session featuring Navarro, Kenny Dorham, Sonny Stitt, Bud Powell, and Kenny Clarke, and two sessions led by Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis. More importantly, some of Navarro's earliest recordings with pianist Tadd Dameron are included, one of the key collaborations in post-war jazz. These recordings feature some of the most exciting small group trumpet of the 1940's. Navarro's Blue Note recordings (available on a two-disc set) are also essential.

This review is from: Goin to Minton's (Audio CD)
Highly recommended; anyone who wants to know where Clifford Brown came from should listen to Navarro. One minor error in the main review: Navarro died in 1950, not 1948. There are recordings of Navarro playing with Charlie Parker at Birdland in 1950, shortly before his death.
