CD ReviewsBeautiful... Essential to any music lover's collection JoeyD | los gatos, ca | 01/24/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is Chet at his best when it comes to trumpet playing. "My Funny Valentine" is my favorite of Chet's singing albums and this is my favorite album of his showcasing his amazing ability on the trumpet. You can definitely hear how Miles Davis influenced him. The CD recording couldn't sound better, it's crisp, clean, and clear as can be. The music is very rich and soothing, it's perfect for a quiet night at home or a rainy day. Chet's group is made up of some of the top jazz musicians ever - Pepper Adams (sax), Bill Evans (piano), Kenny B. (guitar), Herbie Mann (flute) and Miles' favorite drummer and one of mine Philly Joe Jones. This is one of those albums that if you are new to jazz or would like to introduce perhaps a friend or loved one to jazz I would highly recommend purchasing this album along with "Kind of Blue" (Miles), "My Favorite Things" (Coltrane), "Song for My Father" (Horace Silver), "Sidewinder" (Lee Morgan), "Brilliant Corners" (Monk), "Take Five" (Brubeck), etc...
This is essential to anyone's music collection! I would have to rate this one as one of the all-time best. Great intro to jazz music." |
