Kickin' it with The Kicker,
By Anthony Ramirez (Spring Hope, NC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Kicker (Audio CD)
I stepped into Millenium Music in Durham, NC one day and I saw on the jazz preview rack The Kicker, so I popped on the headphones...and boy was I in for a treat! It's a real chill album, maybe not as deep as some other more widely publicized and praised jazz albums, yet the album doesn't get half the recognition due to it. It's exciting in some parts, yet has a wonderful chill value all throughout the album; songs that stood out for me included "Without a Song", "Nardis", and "O Amor Em Paz". This album is even great for those just getting their feet wet in jazz, it doesn't take a great depth of appreciation for jazz to fall in love with this wonderful CD (as I proved with one of my friends). So for avid and not-so-avid jazz fans alike I highly recommend this album for your jazz collection.

Go Joe!,

This review is from: The Kicker (Audio CD)
For those of you who know Joe Henderson primarily through his Blue Note output this album will not disappoint. In fact, you will find the first two tracks on other Blue Note albums on which Joe Henderson plays as a sideman Trompeta Toccata and The Kicker. This also serves as a nice introduction to Henderson's Milestone albums which take steps further out.

The Kicker,
By
This review is from: The Kicker (Audio CD)
This album is great for Joe's arrangement of "Without a Song" using a reharmonized version of the A section. I think the only detractors are the trombone solos (often out of tune) and some of the horn parts in the arrangements can be a little cacophonous. Joe's solos are great as always and the rhythm section is an all star cast (Kenny Barron, Ron Carter, Louis Hays) If you are a Joe Henderson fan you should probbably have this one.
