Music reviews of Art Pepper: Unreleased Art, Vol. 1 Abashiri
Music Review: Great Late Live Recording
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a fun recording and has some great cuts. Art Pepper says at one point that the Body and Soul in this live recording is the best he ever played. It's wonderful that his wife Laurie was able to get these tapes put on CD. If you like Art Pepper, you'll really enjoy this double-CD. He sounds as if he is enjoying himself more than he ever did in his life, and the music reflects that mood. This recording is a nice final postscript to his "Straight Life" autobiography.

Description of Art Pepper: Unreleased Art, Vol. 1 Abashiri
Spectacularly emotional, soulful, tender, and swinging. Legendary Alto Saxophonist Art Pepper's concert in Abashiri Japan in bright snowy November, 1981 with George Cables, David Williams, Carl Burnett. Many never before released tracks. Art Pepper, legendary alto sax player, is known as one of the greatest jazz artists of his generation. But he always soared far beyond the dated categories of swing and be-bop in his lyricism, technical brilliance, soulfulness, and solid, down-home raunchy sweetness. VOLUME 1 is a TWO DISC SET, a complete concert performed in Abashiri, in Northern Japan, in the snowy winter of 1981 for an audience who showered Art and the guys with uncommon enthusiasm and wild love. They responded with a performance that seems to levitate with energy. You get to be there and hear Art declare this performance of "Body and Soul" "One of the nicest things I've played in my life." Mastered by Wayne Peet, the quality is excellent. (Included: an eight page booklet with reminiscences and photos by Laurie) (moi). Nobody has it. It's an instant collectors' item. This album is the first of a series of mostly unreleased material which will include performances recorded live and in-studio throughout his career. Some "unreleased" tracks have been illegally exchanged (I mean they have been traded or, sold by people who haven't given me, Laurie, Art Pepper's widow and intended beneficiary, a taste: The taste that Art supposed I'd be entitled to.) Thus, the title of the series, "Widow's Taste." 1 Landscape 2 Besame Mucho 3 Red Car 4 Goodbye 5 Straight Life 6 Road Waltz 7 For Freddie (part 1) 8 For Freddie (part 2) 9 Body and Soul 10 Talk 11 Rhythm-A-Ning 12 Blues Encore (incJazz CDs
