5.0 out of 5 stars
Mature and vibrant, April 17, 2003
This review is from: Two Views (Audio CD)
Ed Harlow's second CD pulls together his many influences in one collection of mature, thought-provoking jazz.
His composing and arranging techniques are at their peak here with his wonderful, original instrumental pieces and his treatments of some well-known standards with Pernille Aidt. The combo is brilliant yet understated, intelligent conversationalists who speak clearly and succintly but capture so much in the understated things they say. Harlow's sax tone and technique will hopefully be recognized soon as the A-list contender that it is.
This CD is an excellent addition to anyone's jazz collection, an independent CD that will stand up to many of the major label efforts. Slide this disc in, settle back with a glass of wine and the one you love and watch the heat rise.
