Music reviews of Bop
Music Review: Lyrical, beautiful bebop
Rating: 5 Stars
Anyone who thinks bebop means breakneck tempos combined with "bombs away" drumming should listen to this CD. Only one of these tunes is taken up-tempo, and Leroy Williams's drumming on it (52nd STREET THEME) is sensitive and lyrical. In fact, lyrical is the best word to describe this entire CD. Frank Morgan's alto playing is airy and delicate, and is most effective on medium-tempo selections, with John Lewis's MILANO a typical example. A couple of the tunes are Monk compositions, and pianist Rodney Kendrick emulates Thelonious with great skill and ?lan. K.C. BLUES is a slow blues, as was the original recording by Bird, and the group goes way downhome to get to the essence of it. LOVER MAN is taken perhaps a tad too slow (it feels draggy after a while), but everything else on this CD is magnificent and plays to the heart. This is bebop played lyrically and sensitively: Beautiful!
