Review: Jazz Journalists Association Awards Marks its Ninth Year With A Yawn

by Tad Hendrickson

NEW YORK – The Jazz community has its fair share of get-togethers and more than its fair share of festivals. But when the Jazz Journalists Associ- ation began giving awards nine years ago, it was an idea that was long over- due. The first such event was a colorful evening where author/raconteur Stan- ley Crouch editorialized on the en- trants of his category (slamming both and in the process), and the after party at the then new Knitting Factory was punc- tuated by a scuffle between Shipp and Crouch that was broken up by Ravi Coltrane. This year was not nearly as wild and wooly, which was really shame. While fistfights are not entertainment, that night had a certain sparkle to it.

Past Blue Note efforts were surveys of Bernstein and Carmi- chael, so it should come as no surprise that the pianist turned to George Gershwin this time around, arguably one of the greatest 20th Century composers.

The slow ’n’ romantic “How Long Has This Been Going On?” is a standout here thanks to the plush solo from Woods. Other classics rendered anew include “S’Wonderful” and “Nice Work If You Can Get It,” but don’t let that distract from the lesser known tunes like the lesser known “I Was So Young (You Were So Beautiful)” and quiet closer “Soon,” which is done solo by Charlap.
