Music reviews of Duke Ellington & John Coltrane
Music Review: Get Sentimental Mood and Brown Book
Rating: 5 Stars
This version of In a Sentimental Mood is incredible. Just pure, heartbreaking beauty. The drummer goes to kind of a weird Time Out kind of place, but he comes back and ends it nicely. The best dollar you will ever spend.
Brown Book is also great. Coltrane sounds like Johnny Hodges, Duke's regular sax player, and that's a GOOD thing.
On the other tunes, Duke is exquisite on piano, the bass and drums are nice, but ... Coltrane is melodic and perfect for 30 or 60 seconds and then he goes off to his atonal genius place where I cannot follow or listen.
Description of Duke Ellington & John Coltrane
Limited edition Japanese 200 gram vinyl LP pressing of this classic album. Universal. 2007.Perhaps looking to renew his inspiration or maybe simply wanting to broaden his horizons, Duke Ellington began a string of collaborations in the second half of his career--whereas before that, his own band was stimulus enough. Whatever the reason, almost all of his collaborations succeeded at high levels, although none of his shared sessions are more intriguing on the surface than this 1962 date with the preeminent sax star of the day. In reality, the record amounts to "Coltrane Plays Ellington" (plus one Coltrane original) because the tenor man is the whole show--and what a show it is. Only Coltrane could be as "fiercely tender," and there's no better forum for his sensitive side than the music of Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, who contributes the album's true vertex, "My Little Brown Book." The rhythm section alternates between Duke's and Trane's, each adding a different texture to the proceedings. Ellington is wise enough to appreciate the nature of the session, and he is quite content to feed chords in service of the young master--proving the old master's open mind and good taste. Hearing Coltrane seize "In a Sentimental Mood" is thanks enough. --Marc Greilsamer
