CD ReviewsGood Garland Michael B. Richman | Portland, Maine USA | 12/20/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "Red Garland's "Solar" is another OOP OJC CD that I picked up in the clearance bins at Newbury Comics. This January 30, 1962 session was originally recorded for the Jazzland label, and features a different lineup than all those 50s dates for Prestige -- Les Spann on guitar (and flute on two tracks), Sam Jones on bass and Frank Gant on drums. Like most Garland efforts, the eight tunes are mix of originals and standards, along with the Miles Davis penned title track. This is a solid session, but Spann's role is a bit minimized, especially on guitar, and Gant's contribution leaves much to be desired. Overall, it's good Garland -- middle of the pack in his vast Fantasy discography."
