CD Reviews

"the return of Gene Harris live is a welcome listen"

J. Lovins | Missouri-USA | 07/17/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hard pounding soulful Gene Harris, whose style is unmistakable. Once you've heard Harris, you're hooked. With past recordings under his belt ~ "Black and Blue"..."Like A Lover"..."Brotherhood"..."A Little Piece Of Heaven"..."Funky Gene's"...the list could go on. If you haven't picked up any of those mentioned you're missing out on some hard-boppin' jazz with a blues flavor. On this latest release from Concord ~ "Big Band Soul", two great albums under one roof. Featuring Ray Brown, Harry "Sweets" Edision, Herb Ellis, Jeff Hamilton, Frank Weiss and Ernestine Anderson bring what we all love and crave---Great Jazz! Stand outs are ~ "PORGY & BESS MEDLEY", can't say enough about Gershwin with sprinkles of Gene Harris ~ "A CHILD IS BORN", classic arrangement by Frank Weiss on this Thaddeus J. Jones tunes, what more could anyone ask for ~ "BATTLE ROYAL" and "WARM VALLEY", both composed by Duke Ellington taking you into the realm of big band soul as only Gene Harris and the Superband can muster. Outstanding two package journey into the world of soul-jazz with hints of fusion and topped off with a Big Band Sound. Concord has given us a glimpse into the past, things are looking up. Gene Harris is one-of-a-kind performer that can never be replaced---gotta love it. Total 2-CD-Set ~ Concord Jazz CCD2-2143-2 ~ (2002)"

Sweet cocktails

"Creme de Menthe' says it all. This man was a master at piano creschendos that were like rolling waves that sneak up on you and leave breathless after the fact.While the live tracks are from a still available on a couple Concord releases, this is a great introduction of what Gene Harris was about. The quality of the recording is A+ and you can rest assured this is one you will play over and over, no matter what your taste..which has got to be good! The cut Creme de Menthe' was a Erroll Garner standard that Harris makes worth the price of admission!"
