CD Reviews

The old Duke still gives me surprises

Antonio | Madrid Spain | 05/14/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"One of my musicians and composers. The one who made me love jazz as to so many millions of people. Someone who is part of my life and my thoughts is Mr. Duke Ellington. I love his music, his orchestra, the way he composed for an orchestra that never died and always kept alive despite the bop, hard bop, etc... The most imaginative orchestra led by the most innovative of the conductors, composers and men of jazz. Well, with this record, he made me confirm that there's no other jazzman like him. I heard "Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me" and never missed the band, he and the excellent bass player Ray Brown invented the big band for two. And the rest of the tracks give you the same sensation. The old man kept on being bold and audacious till the end of his life. Creating with Mr. Brown, with Mr. Coltrane, with whoever. He was able to do anything and this album is the evidence.

Bless you, Duke. I envy those who are in heaven with you."

This one's for Blanton!

"This Japanese pressing CD could be the best sounding "red book" CD I have ever heard. I think it sounds just as good as SACD or Great LP.

Perfect Music

Perfect Performance

Perfect Sound (forever)"
