Reviewed: 2020—02-17 Genre: Jazz FCCs: none Review: Trumpeter Bailey draws on the history of when Dizzy Gillespie ran for President in 1964, and points up that the same issues he ran on then are prevalent today. The band is tight & the music is straight be-bop from another lifetime. If You Like: Dizzy Gillespie, Freddie Hubbard, Clifford Brown, Woody Shaw Track Review (favorites denoted by *): *1/ Pebbles In The Pocket (5:08) – bass starts> uptempo jam> quick stop **2/ The President Gillespie Suite (12:14) – drums start> midtempo jam with muted trumpet builds to rocking uptempo> crescdendo end l/ The Humanitarian Candidate ll/ Road To The Blues House lll/ President Gillespie’s Birthday Song **3/ The Touch Of Her Vibe (7:06) – percussion starts> subdued midtempo jam builds to uptempo> slow fade 4/ The Blues House (6:50) – horns start> midtempo brassy jam swings uptempo> crescendo end *5/ Ballad From Oro, Incensio Y Mirra (6:05) – piano starts> slow tempo jam> fade> pause> fade *6/ Elite State Of Mind (6:16) – drums start> mellow uptempo jam with flute & female vocal> sax joins> crescendo and fade 7/ Valsa Rancho (5:43) – horns start> slow tempo jam builds to uptempo, then slows to fade *8/ From The Heart (7:51) – piano/drums start> uptempo jam> crescendo end 9/ People (3:54) – trumpet starts> slow tempo jam> slow fade | ||
