5.0 out of 5 stars
J.J. Inc. has finally gone public -- buy stock now!,
By Michael B. Richman (Portland, Maine USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: J.J. Inc (Audio CD)
Simply put, this is a fantastic recording. With Freddie Hubbard (tp) and Clifford Jordan (ts) joining J.J. on the front line, the sound is reminiscent of Blue Note classics like "Mosaic" or "Hub Cap." It's too bad this sextet did not record other times, and in fact J.J. was quoted in an essay by Loren Schoenberg as saying this group was "the best one I ever had." Cedar Walton and Tootie Heath are in great form, and bass player Arthur Harper (this is the only recording I have ever heard him on) holds his own with the other five giants of jazz. Songs like "Mohawk," "Fatback" and "Aquarius" achieve a powerpacked post-bop groove equal to anything in the early 60s. The Inc. will not disappoint.

Worth Every Penny...,
By morti-viventi (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: J.J. Inc (Audio CD)
...but you can get it for less.Simply put, this is an amazing recording. I can't say anything that hasn't been said, Mr. Richman said it all. If the price listed on amazon doesn't satisfy you, you can get the whole album from apple's music store for only 99¢ a song. |
