Abate, Greg & Phil Woods with the Ray Trio
Kindred Spirits – Live at Chan’s
Label: Whaling City Sounds
This is a terrific set from 2 old masters. This is probably Phil Woods’
last performance and he is playing better than most of the current
upcoming artists. Most of these tunes are extended jams. It proves
old dogs CAN learn new tricks!
Genre: jazz
If You Like: Eric Dolphy, John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter
FCCs: none
Favorite Tracks: Steeplechase (disc 1), Willow Weep for me (disc 1),
I’ll Remember April (disc 2), Moonlight in Vermont (disc 2), Yardbird
Suite (disc 2)
Track Review:
DISC 1
1. Straight bop with touches of dissonance a la Eric Dolphy
2. Piano driven mid-tempo swing transitions full bop
3. Mid-tempo ballad
4. Piano leads into slow ballad with gorgeous horns
5. Full bop swing
6. Mid-tempo swing a la Dolphy
7. Dissonant up-tempo swing
8. (no music)
9. (no music)
10. (no music)
11. (no music)
DISC 2
1. Great take on old standard – dissonant intro transitions
into full bop jam
2. Slow build, long drawn out notes – nice take on another standard
3. Up-tempo bossa melody
4. Mid-tempo bounce
5. Nice soloing on a mid-tempo take on this Charlie Parker standard
6. Mid-tempo take on old standard – short version
7. (no music)
