The non-original selections are wide in all, this is an eclectic vocal album that ranging, from a bossa/samba, "Doralice," hangs together with Allan's rich, honeyed sung in Portuguese and Steely Dan's hip- voice and a band that exemplifies the ster "Any Major Dude Will Tell You" done sounds of a black bar jukebox. A Social Call, Jazzmeia Horn (Prestige/Concord), rivals Cecile McLorin Salvant's as an immensely impressive debut for a jazz vocalist, especially consid- ering that she is still in her early 20s and many jazz singers take decades to mature and develop their artistry. The album title has a double resonance. "Social Call" was a signature Betty Carter song (by Gigi Gryce and Jon Hendricks) and the title also expresses Jazzmeia's "call in peace about issue affecting peace." Jazzmeia is strongly influenced by Betty, and includes not only "Social Call" but the Carter original, and tour-de-force of tempi and rhythm change-ups, "Tight." Tenor saxophonist Stacey Dillard engages in four-bar trades with Jazzmeia's exuber- ant scat on "Tight," while she begins "Social Call" over just Ben Williams’ pizzi- cato bass. He is one of the album's core rhythm section, along with pianist Victor Gould and drummer Jerome Jennings. While Betty is a major influence, Jazzmeia's voice is much rangier, with also more tonal and timbral variety. So, it is not surprising that she channels her inner Sarah on "East of the Sun," begun like Sarah's with a full chorus of just voice and bass, or that she can conjure the pure dul- cet tones of Sarah and Ella in a legato mood on the pensive Jimmy Rowles/Norma Winstone ballad "The Peacocks," delivered over just Victor's piano, Josh Evans adding continued on page 29 4 Faddis cover photo by John Abbott, Gates by Keyvan Behpour, Harris by Shervin Lainez, Horn by Fran Kaufman. 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 5 5 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 6 6 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 1:23 PM Page 7 7 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 8 8 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 9 9 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 10 10 182999_HH_July_0 6/23/17 12:23 PM Page 11 Sign-up for our E-ALERT at www.hothousejazz.com and be the 1st to know when the latest Hot House is available on line PUBLISHER/MANAGING EDITOR: For advertising requests and Gwen Kelley (formerly Calvier) listing info contact Gwen Kelley [email protected] Toll Free Phone: COPY EDITOR: Yvonne Ervin 888-899-8007/[email protected] [email protected] Hot House Jazz Magazine is published monthly and all PRODUCTION & ART DIRECTOR: copyrights are the property of Gwen Kelley.

  • A Night in Tunisia (From Album “Legends Masterpieces)
    ANALISI DELLE FORME COMPOSITIVE di alcuni notissimi brani jazz di Avv. Valentina Grande 1) Sonny Rollins - St.Thomas (Original) (from album “The Prestige Years”) 2) Dizzy Gillespie feat. Charlie Parker - A Night In Tunisia (from album “Legends Masterpieces) 3) Miles Davis – Godchild (from album “Birth of the cool”) 1) Sonny Rollins - St.Thomas (Original) 1956 (from album “Saxophone Colossus”/“The Prestige Years”) St. Thomas è un brano strumentale scritto dal tenorsassofonista jazz Sonny Rollins, nel periodo dell’hard bop, nell’anno 1956, anno in cui ai musicisti del periodo fu data la possibilità di estendere la durata delle registrazioni oltre i fatidici tre minuti concessi dai supporti 78 giri, grazie all’innovazione giunta con l’introduzione del long playing in vinile a 33 giri. Nel leggendario studio di Rudy Van Gelder, niente altro che il salotto della sua abitazione ad Hackensack, New Jersey, il 22 giugno di quell’anno il produttore Bob Weinstock, creatore dell’etichetta discografica Prestige, organizzò una seduta di registrazione per il sassofonista Sonny Rollins e il suo quartetto. Il frutto del lavoro di quella giornata confluì nell’album “Saxophone Colossus”, opera che nei decenni a venire avrebbe cambiato la vita di molti sassofonisti più o meno in erba. L’eccezionale quartetto convocato per l’occasione era completato da Tommy Flanagan al pianoforte, Doug Watkins al contrabbasso e Max Roach alla batteria. Tra i brani registrati in quell’occasione, il più noto è sicuramente St. Thomas, passato alla storia come uno dei primi “calypso” registrati nell’ambito del jazz. La forma del brano, di sedici misure, è una sorta di AABC in miniatura, con sezioni di quattro misure.

He was among the first to use Afro-Cuban music in jazz. Included Listening: A Night in Tunisia Track 9 36 Meet the Great Jazz Legends ■ The Story of Dizzy Gillespie (1917–1993) ohn Birks “Dizzy” Gillespie was one of the most important and influential jazz trumpeters, after Louis Armstrong. Dizzy Gillespie, along with his colleagues Charlie Parker and Thelonious J Monk, are considered to be the “fathers” of the fast-and-furious style called bebop. Dizzy Gillespie was known for his soaring trumpet lines, his puffed cheeks and the tilted bell of his trumpet. He was loved by musicians and fans for his engaging personality and showmanship. Gillespie was inspired to play music by his father who was a bricklayer and part- time musician. Gillespie began playing the piano at the age of 4. He taught himself to play the trumpet by trial and error, with the help of a few friends at the age of 12. In 1935, Gillespie moved to Philadelphia with his mother, after the death of his father.
