Biography

Gene Ammons, who had a huge and immediately recognizable tone on tenor, was a very flexible player who could play bebop with the best (always battling his friend Sonny Stitt to a tie) yet was an influence on the R&B world. Some of his ballad renditions became hits and, despite two unfortunate interruptions in his career, Ammons remained a popular attraction for 25 years.

4.0 out of 5 stars Typical blowin' session, February 27, 2005
By Bomojaz (South Central PA, USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This 4-track CD is what was known back in the 50s as a "blowin' session": everybody jams on the chords of a tune (usually a standard or a blues) for a prescribed number of choruses; after everone's had a taste, the tune ends. On to the next song. This is a typical blowin' session, with some excellent players involved, which is why it works: along with Gene's tenor there are Idrees Sulieman (tp), Jackie McLean (as), Mal Waldron (p), Kenny Burell (g), Paul Chamber (b) and Art Taylor (d). In other words, the cream of the crop of hard-bop players in NYC at the time. Too much of this kind of thing could get boring, but this is a very nice album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jammin' is the concept, Ammons is the reality, November 5, 2002
By Ed Hawkins (Houston, Texas USA) - See all my reviews
Gene comes out sassy in Twister and Chambers keeps the group moving on the bass line. Chambers pushes everbody to find the groove and jam within it. If you like creativity that moves and professionals that share the stage, pick this one up. These are musician's musicians.
