Music reviews of At the Lighthouse
Music Review: A hot performance
Rating: 5 Stars
Out of the first 3 quintet albums, this is probably my favorite. Them Dirty Blues was a very nice album, but Cannonball probably realized that this band was at its best and most intense on stage. That reflects itself pretty clearly in the amazing album opener, "Sack o' Woe".
As far as I know, there are only two versions of Cannonball playing this tune. It's tough to pick a favorite between the one on this record and the one that would appear six years later on Mercy, Mercy, Mercy - probably the main difference is that this one has a bringing swinging rhythm at times. But it nevertheless grooves like crazy, and easily falls into the "greatest Cannonball tracks" category. Hats off to Victor Feldman, Sam Jones and Louis Hayes, who really make this work.
The other tunes can be overshadowed by this monster, but they are very good nonetheless. Frank Rosolino's "Blue Daniel" is a nice mellow waltz. Most of the other tunes are fast, straight-ahead bebop. Those looking for a ballad will have to look at one of the later Cannonball live albums.
While in general I prefer Cannonball's music after Yusef Lateef joined the band, this is the best I've heard from the period before then. Highly recommended.
