Music Reviews of We'll Be Together Again
Music Review: Lots of pleasant stuff, but not at the top.
Rating: 3 Stars
Joe Pass and Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen set an incredibly high standard with their duo and trio recordings, and so its hard not to hear this album in light of those and to find it significantly thinner. The tunes are all quite good, but I found nothing spectacular on it, which surprised me since I like J.J. Johnson a great deal. It's still a fine jazz album though, with a nice selection of tunes. The guitar/trombone combination is also a nice sound in its own right, and I like to listen to it just to hear the tone.Music Review: Not on this Side of Armageddon, but...
Rating: 4 Stars
Wonderful versions of standards (one original by J.J.) in an unusual duo setting. I particularly enjoyed Blue Bossa and though a huge fan of Joe Pass, I am going to steal parts of J.J.'s solo and not Joe's when I play this song. This album is "good fun" and I like the concept of a Trombone comping.Music Review: strike three and it's a home run!

I loved the soothing/relaxing quality of selection 1 and the great upbeat selections 5 and 9. I also liked 4 and 10. J. J. Johnson is my favorite trombonist, this is my 2nd favorite CD album and I wish that Andre Previn/J.J.'s Mack the Knife were available on CD here at amazon.
