Abbey Lincoln : You gotta pay the band

Publié le 20 mars 2010 par Philipped2


You gotta pay the band - Abbey Lincoln (vocal) - Stan Getz (saxophone) - Hank Jones (piano) - Charlie Haden (bass) - Mark Johnson (drums) - Maxine Roach (viola) - 1991 - label Verve Gitanes Jazz - N° 511 110 -2

La voix grave mais nasillarde, le phrasé et le vibrato très caractéristiques d'Abbey Lincoln en font l'une des grandes ladies du jazz. Participation exceptionnelle du grand Stan Getz. Un des plus beaux albums de la belle Dame au chapeau

With a sort of strange mix of bass tone and whiny voice, Abbey Lincoln can be recognized at the very first seconds of any song. Her typical phrasing and vibrato contribute to raise her as the great Jazz Ladies. Outstanding participation of Stan Getz.  One of the greatest album of the beautiful "Top Hart" Lady.

Note de dégustation : concentré et velouté.

Testing note : concentrated and velvety.

Score : ★★★

Track 9 : Up jumped spring (Freddie Hubard / Abbey Lincoln).
