Nicholas Demonstrates His Brilliance!, January 25, 2000
This review is from: New Orleans-Chicago Connection (Audio CD)
I'm not exactly sure if Nicholas is considered by many a grade "A" player,but he's my favorite! Maybe that's an unlikely choice but if you listen to this album you start start to see things my way. His playing on "Digga Digga Do" is worth the price of the cd itself. Art Hodes does some pretty amazing things also! Another great track to listen to is "Lover Come Back To Me". Anyone familiar with the song knows it's usually performed as a ballad but here they swing from beginning to end! This allows some great solos by the entire quartet. If you like this album another great one to listen to is "All Star Stompers". This has Nicholas in the more traditional New Orleans setup(Trumpet,Trombone,Guitar..ect) If you love good jazz and want to hear some great clarinet playing..A MUST!
