Search - Herb Ellis, Joe Pass :: Arrival

This is one of my top 3 Joe Pass albums.

"It is real easy to tell who is soloing on this one. If the lines are inticate and smooth while the rhythm underneath is sparse and and very simple----you have joe soloing. If the soloing has bluesy but in a pentatonic sense (kind of sophmoric playing) with killer rhythm underneath, then Herb is soloing. They complement eachother nicely, but Joe really stands out.



Herb does some humorous stuff like playing percussion on the git. Joe says "No mustard, No mustard", and RB says "play something fast" before Seven come eleven. A few jokes and nice quotes in the solos, especially Charlie Christian.



This is a top Ray Brown album in my book. I transcribed all the lines for every tune. This is how bass should be played. Jake Hanna does a sweet job throughout. One of the many great Joe Pass albums made, complete with spontanaiety and fun. Very musical."

Herb & Joe Are Good!

"Herb Ellis And Joe Pass do wonderful jobs each soloing and complementing each other. They have some great songs, and solos as well, though at times it is hard to distinguish between who is playing what. However, their styles and their tone change contribute to us knowing who is playing. This is Seven Come Eleven with another cd, however, it is not hybrid. The solos are great. Unfortunately there is not a song player set up here yet, but I assure you this is worth your money if you like trio jazz kind of stuff. It takes a while to get used to but its great.

"I actually own the CD titled "Seven Come Eleven", but since there's no song list here and based on the content of the other reviews it's clear that this is the same album, so don't buy it in addition. See review under "Seven Come Eleven"."
