Music reviews of Take Ten
Music Review: Dry Martini Music
Rating: 5 Stars
I first owned this music on LP and then paid an exorbitant amount of money to buy it on CD as a Japanese import. I just couldn't gamble that it would ever appear in the States at a more reasonable price. That's how much I love this music! I am pleased to see that it is now available at that more reasonable price! Buy it! I hope that this reissue includes Desmond's original liner notes. Lucky for me his liner notes in my import are included in English as well as Japanese! Like the music contained on the disc Desmond's written words are wry, witty, urbane, and cool. He was a very funny man and, of course, a great saxophone player. His soft light tone is always instantly recognizable and he seems to swing effortlessly. I believe I read somewhere that he had a deal with Dave Brubeck that if he recorded under his own name it wouldn't be with a piano in a quartet setting. If this is true music lovers can be grateful because Desmond and the sublime guitarist Jim Hall are totally simpatico. They recorded together a number of times; all of their collaborations are worth having. I also seem to remember that Desmond once compared his own playing to a dry martini. As a lover of dry martinis I couldn't agree more.....and if Paul didn't say that it is the kind of thing he would have said!
