5.0 out of 5 stars Avant-Garde BeBop Triumph
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2003
John Zorn, Bill Frisell, and a trombone player! No disrespect to George Lewis, I'm just not familiar with his work. But all three musicians distinguish themselves on the exciting CD. Anyone looking for a contemporary take on Bop and Soul Jazz from the top players in the game today need look no further. Import contains three stellar live tracks. Some of John Zorn's most accessible playing, but still maintains his unique flavor and sparkle. A real must have for Zorn fans, but also for fans of Hank Mobley, Sonny Clark, or Kenny Dorham, whose works are all interpeted here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, essential Zorn
Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2004
I've got about 30 Zorn CDs--News For Lulu is on my must-have essential Zorn list. It's a very hard bopping jazz trio. Not a lot of improvised noise going on here, but really incredible musicianship and excellent playing.
The live version is likewise incredible. Very unusual mix of instrumentation as well--guitar, Zorn's alto sax, trombone. But man, does it work! Very listenable, and very different from anything else I've heard from Zorn.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fellow U-High alumni
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2022
George and fellow trombonist Ray Anderson were classmates (one year ahead of me) at the University of Chicago's University High School, or "U-High" as it was humorously called in the late 60s. The late great Paul Butterfield preceded us all!

5.0 out of 5 stars ジャズにおける寝かせ
Reviewed in Japan on March 10, 2019

ジョンゾーンのハードバップ集。発売されたころ大評判になって聴いてみたら、全然ぴんと来なかった。10年後、四谷いーぐるの後藤さんの本で見て、改めて聴いてみたがやはりぴんと来なかった。30年後聴いてみたら良いじゃない。30年後の理解。まあ、バップを‘75年に分かるっていうと、ジャズメンの先見とファンの後追いの時差として、ピッタリじゃないのかな？

5.0 out of 5 stars 精密機械
Reviewed in Japan on December 13, 2012

ハードバップの全盛期に活躍したジャズ･ミュージシャンたちの名曲を、奇才John Zornがカバーしたアルバム。

ジャズといえばやはり即興。インプロバイゼーション
そうなると、一片の隙も無い精密機械のような演奏よりも、どことなく人間味のある暖かい演奏のほうが好まれる。
これまで、John Zornは基本的に「過剰」ともいえるほどに即興性を重視してきたけど、本作ではあえて前者を取り入れた。
一聴すると普通のハードバップのようだが、聞けば聞くほどその演奏の「精密機械っぷり」にある種の不安感、違和感を覚えるようになる。少し不思議な魅力。

天才的な演奏技術に裏打ちされたカバー･アルバムと捉えることも出来るし、あくまでアヴァンギャルドの一端と捉えることも出来る。
50年代に輝いた偉大なジャズミュージシャンと、自らが発展させてきたアヴァンギャルドシーンの両者に対する愛を感じられる、素晴らしい作品。

あと余談だけど、ジャケットデザインは（2012年時点で）3種類あるうちでは93年版が一番好きです
