4.0 out of 5 stars some great moments, November 30, 2008

I really miss Cannonball. This CD blows away some of my blues, because some of these tunes are very close to the power of the Nat-Cannonball music of the early sixties. Especially the Cleanhead Vinson number, "Arriving Soon", which was on Cannonball-Cleanhead record. Herring, the sax player, does a great job at re-interpreting this, at times it sounds like Cannonball had returned to update his original (or was it Vinson?) thoughts. This CD is worth buying because the good numbers are great, and the more medium tunes are still pleasant, with well thought out solos.
I agree with the above review, also, with an exception concerning Zawinul: he didn't get lost in fusion, he continued writing innovative music for many years, but his well of ideas simply dried up as he got older (in the 1980's) as is the case with most musicians.

While not up to some of the music produced with Vincent Herring this is still and excellent bluesy outing with nice selection of not to ofetn heard tunes.Can't go wrong with Walter"Bookie" Booker or Jimmy Cobb the pleasant surprise here is Rob Bargad a pianist not high up on radar who plays a nice funky/bluesy style al la Timmons of the Adderley's original "Mercy,Mercy,Mercy" writer Joe Zawinul (before he lost his way into fusion...oh well them's fightin' words fopr some and "Can't we all just get along?".All in all this is worth the super cheap asking price and you might even pull it out now and then.For a better Nat/Herring pairing I'd get "Old Folks" or "Tribute To Cannonball".But this is worth getting.I'd definitely give it 3.5 or maybe a 4 star if your a devotee.
