CD Reviews

A wasted opportunity
10/30/2001
(3 out of 5 stars)

"What an unique sound-stage for a live recording: a large stone church begun around 1300, present-day attempts to rebuild its crumbing apse have been abandoned; which only seems to contribute to the sonic delights emanating therein. But, for this listener, despite the all-star lineup, Live at Umbria Jazz, Vol II, is a one-track album. The track is Broken Wing which features a great intro by bassist Mark Egan, and then onto the Evans' greats George Adams, Tom 'Bones' Malone, Lew Soloff who carry it along for more than twenty minutes.Three of the remaining tunes center-around minor league (amidst this company) vocalizings by Urzula Dudziak and Delmar Brown."
