5.0 out of 5 stars
Best Hamilton Ever !!!!!!,
By Rick Dobrydney (Milford, Connecticut United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scott Hamilton Quartet Live in London (Audio CD)
Scott Hamilton is simply amazing. He just goes on and on , year after year, producing one superb album after another. He's been recording for Concord for over 25 years now, and I defy anyone to name a jazz artist with a more consistent output during that time period. A strong statement ?? I really don't think so , and this new CD simply backs it up . Tasteful and swinging both in the choice of material and the incredible British trio which backs him up, Scott has definitely hit a new peak. Tunes like "The Squirrel" (which is a great opener) feature his unmistakable tone and wealth of ideas, which seem to flow endlessly. Scott always includes a few ballads in every set, and this time he features a gorgeous "When I Fall In Love" and the surprising "When You Wish Upon A Star". "Easter Parade" is given a fresh new look, and the bass player Dave Green is fea- tured with Scott on his original "Licks". The best is saved for last, however, in a way up-tempo reading of Al Cohn's old tune, "The Goof and I". This burns furiously from start to finish, and includes a not-to-be-believed Hamilton solo which , for seven blistering choruses, must have lifted the entire band about a foot off the ground. I don't think there are many tenor players out there who can match the intense swinging, lifting feel which Scott got on this solo. Definitely one for the ages, and one which hopefully won't be ignored come Grammy time. In short, the album is a classic. If you think you've heard great tenor playing, hear this. Now.
