CD ReviewsWell worth getting S J Buck | Kent, UK | 10/20/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "Jean Toussaint is hard-driving Tenor and Soprano Sax player influenced by Coltrane who played with Art Blakey many years ago. This album which was recorded in August 2001 finds him in high quality company:
Mulgrew Miller - Piano Robert Hurst - Bass Jeff "Tain" Watts - Drums Bill Mobley - Trumpet & Flugelhorn (tracks 1,2 & 7) Anga Diaz - Percussion (track 1 & 5) Tracks 1,2,3,5 & 7 are all Toussaints own compositions. 'One for Ronnie' is dedicated to Ronnie Scott. The remaining tracks are Gershwin, Monk and Ann Ronnell's 'Willow weep or me'. This last track is the longest on the album at 12:40 and the band play a very interesting arrangement which alternates its rythmic feel every few choruses and is hypnotic performance. It seems to have gone out of print now, but its well worth getting at the price some marketplace sellers have it on offer at. " |
