Post Description

Choices it’s called, choices you get – 1954 and 1959 – two different recording dates with two different groups, one track selection from each side. Both share Zoot’s muscular tenor, and uncompromising belief in how he wanted to play. Zoot’s output was prodigious, playing in big bands in the Forties, a solo artists in the Fifties, and playing and recording right up to his death in 1985.This is early Zoot, but given lots of space to play it his way – melodic, perfectly paced, with rich tenor voice and treading an inventive path between old and new.  Bob Brookmeyer forsakes his customary valve trombone for piano here.[LondonJazzCollector]

WACHTWOORD: MusicRules

Zoot Sims is één van de "Four Brothers" die in deze opnames uit '54 en '59 zijn onmiskenbare tenorgeluid laat horen. Persoonlijk vind ik de opname "Flamingo" uit '54 de mooiste van dit album.

Veel luisterplezier,
Nanno Nextinga
