Clark Terry – One on One [SACD ISO 百度云]

简介：
by Ken DrydenRight in the middle of celebrating his 79th birthday, Clark Terry went into the studio for several days to record 14 duets with a different pianist on each track, with many of them being veterans of many record dates and/or concerts with him. Terry remains one of the most easily identifiable trumpeters and flügelhorn players in jazz, so much so that more than one critic has claimed the ability to identify him after just one note. Each track is dedicated to a great performer of the past, though no attempt is made to copy famous recordings, of course. Terry’s brilliant flügelhorn swings mightily along withMonty Alexanderon the surprising dedication toNat King Coleof &L.O.V.E.,& which was a hit for him afterColehad all but quit playing piano and enjoyed even greater success as a popular singer. The choice ofLil Hardin Armstrong’s &Just for a Thrill& is also an interesting one, versus her better known &Struttin’ With Some Barbecue&; Terry’s fat tone on his big horn is well complemented byGeri Allen. Terry scats an imitation of brushes on cymbals to introduce &Swingin’ the Blues& withJunior Mancebefore switching to muted trumpet. Old friendMarian McPartlandworks with Terry to produce a mesmerizing rendition of &Skylark.& Also present areSir Roland Hanna,Kenny Barron,John Lewis,Barry Harris,Tommy Flanagan,Don Friedman,Billy Taylor,Benny Green,Eric Reed, andEric Lewis. There is not one performance that rates less than excellent within this very highly recommended CD.
