This review is from: Legends of Acid Jazz (Audio CD)
I bought the album "You Talk That Talk" back in the early 70's and I
still listen to this cd at least every week. I contend that "You Talk That Talk" is a perfect artistic work, and it is paired with the album "the Black Cat!", which has 4 great tracks, but also 2 rather campy string arrangement tracks. I am still figuring out Gene Ammons' playing. He has an unusual phrasing style, rhythmically and harmonically. Unlike Stitt, he does not resolve his phrases until the end of solo, building lots of emotional tension along the way. His approach of the blues is more unpredictable than the school of Grover Washington who led to the smooth jazz movement. Ammons was a very popular performer, but was an original who never used cliches. In my opinion, this was Stitt's best work. Stitt was also a true original, despite the uninformed Bird comparisons. He shines here and even the varitone is very cool. The songs choices are wonderful on "You Talk That Talk", and on "the Black Cat!", Ammons has some very unique originals. I could write much more, but to finish - thank you Bob Porter for producing such wonderful records.
