4.0 out of 5 stars
AS HIP AS HE WAS,
By Jonathan A. wang "jon wang" (scotch plains, new jersey United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Live in London, Vol. 2 (Audio CD)
THIS IS A LIVE HAYES SET - AND THOUGH THE RECORDING QUALITY IS A BIT UNEVEN DUE TO POOR MIC PLACEMENT(PROBABLY AN OLD PORTABLE REEL TO REEL) TUBBY'S SOLO ON "AS CLOSE AS YOU ARE" IS AN ABSOLUTE GEM. THE TUNE IS A MEDIUM TEMPO SWINGER WITH THE RHYTHM SECTION LAYING DOWN A VERY HEAVY GROOVE. HAYES SOLO IS A STUNNING MUSICAL DRAMA FEATURING BEAUTIFULLY LYRICAL PHRASES INTERPOSED WITH HIS LOCOMOTIVE LIKE DOUBLE TIMING. THE SOLO - MORE THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS PROVES AGAIN AND AGAIN THAT TUBBY WAS ONE THE MOST COMPELLING JAZZ INSTRUMENTALISTS - EVER - AND CERTAINLY ONE OF THE GREATEST TENOR PLAYERS - AND YES THAT INCLUDES ROLLINS, COLTRANE AND DEXTER AND ALL THE REST. IF THE RECORDING QUALITY WERE BETTER THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN FIVE STARS.
