"Kelly Great" is Very Good,
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: Kelly Great (Audio CD)
First, let me just say that I do not actually own this particular CD, but instead I have this music via "The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers/Wynton Kelly Sessions 1959-61" on Mosaic. (As an aside, while I love Mosaic, if I had to do it all over again, I probably would not have bought their set because all of the albums it collects are currently in print and available single CDs. In retrospect, a few dozen unreleased alternate takes were not worth an extra 20 spot IMO.) But it is the music not the packaging that matters most, and "Kelly Great" is a very good session. Recorded on August 12, 1959, it features Lee Morgan on trumpet, Wayne Shorter on tenor sax, Wynton Kelly on piano, Paul Chambers on bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums. The album features four original compositions -- two by Shorter ("Mama G" and "Sydney") and one each by Kelly and Morgan ("Wrinkles" and "What Know" respectively) -- and the standard "June Night," all equally enjoyable. Along with the OJC CD "Kelly Blue," "Kelly Great" is one of Wynton's best efforts as a leader.
