Undercurrent

Undercurrent (1960) more music like this

by Kenny Drew

Kenny Drew recorded fairly frequently in the 1950s, but after this Blue Note album, he moved to Europe and did not appear as a leader on records until 1973. Still just 32 in 1960, Drew was teamed with the young trumpeter Freddie Hubbard (who already showed great potential), tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Louis Hayes ...

The Kenny Drew Trio

The Kenny Drew Trio (1956) more music like this

by Kenny Drew Trio

Kenny Drew, with the assistance of bassist Paul Chambers (whose bowed solos are always welcome) and drummer Philly Joe Jones, explores six standards and two of his originals. Although Drew would have to move to Europe in the early '60s in order to get the recognition he deserved, it is obvious (in hindsight) from this enjoyable date that he was ...

The Riverside Records Story

The Riverside Records Story (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Riverside Records Story is essentially Orrin Keepnews' baby -- and why not, for the grizzled jazz producer/journalist co-founded the label, ran it from day one in 1952 until it suddenly went bankrupt in 1964, and produced almost all of the original sessions. Riverside's current custodians at Fantasy had Keepnews select and sequence four CDs' ...

In Concert

In Concert (1977) more music like this

by Kenny Drew Trio

By the late 1970s, Kenny Drew had migrated to Europe, where he recorded extensively. This live trio date with the superb bassist Niels Pedersen and guitarist Phillip Catherine is worth looking for. "Django" opens with a lyrical Catherine acoustic solo before Drew and Pedersen take a bluesy detour. "Here's That Rainy Day" is given a lengthy workout ...

Jazz for Lovers [Prestige]

Jazz for Lovers [Prestige] (1957) more music like this

by Various Artists

Taking a hint from 32 Jazz, whose compilations garnered remarkable commercial success in the late '90s, Prestige Records revived its Jazz for Lovers compilation series which had originally been issued in the mid-'60s. The first new collection, also titled Jazz for Lovers, was released in 1999; it featured a collection of instrumental versions of ...

The Rainbow Connection

The Rainbow Connection (1998) more music like this

by Kenny Drew, Jr.

Kenny Drew, Sr. was so legendary a pianist that Kenny Drew, Jr. was bound to be compared to his father, however hard he fought to establish his own identity. And the fact that they played the same instrument didn't exactly discourage comparisons. But the son is very much his own man, and his individuality asserts itself on The Rainbow Connection, ...

Live in Time

Live in Time (1996) more music like this

by Mingus Big Band

Having exhausted most of the late bassist's best-known songs, the Mingus Big Band emphasizes obscurities (such as "Sue's Changes," "Children's Hour of Dream" and "Chair in the Sky"), along with later-period work, on their third release, Live in Time, a double CD. The orchestra really digs into the complex material, and they perform Mingus' almost ...

The Essential Mingus Big Band (2001) more music like this

by Mingus Big Band

A fine "best of" collection drawn from the Mingus Big Band's five-disc output since 1993. The disc captures the flow and live energy of the band's regular Thursday-night gig at Fez Under Time Café in New York. The highlights are many: Ronnie Cuber's baritone sax work on "Moanin'" and his touching narration on "Nostalgia in Times Square"; Kenny ...

Live at the Montreux Jazz Festival 99 (2001) more music like this

by Kenny Drew, Jr.

Kenny Drew, Jr. is all alone on-stage and in total command of the keyboard with this 1999 solo piano set recorded at the 1999 Montreux Jazz Festival. His stunning interpretation of "Alone Together" begins with a tense introduction, yet shows a degree of playfulness. He also finds a fresh approach to another frequently performed standard, "There Is ...

Secrets (1998) more music like this

by Kenny Drew Jr.

Although Kenny Drew, Jr. is the son of the well-known jazz pianist Kenny Drew, he approaches the piano from a far different perspective. Steeped in modern, more linear influences like Bill Evans, Chick Corea, and Keith Jarrett, the younger Drew is one of the top players of his generation, though many jazz fans might not be aware of him, since most ...

Duo 2 (1974) more music like this

by Kenny Drew

After a long period off of records (at least as a leader), pianist Kenny Drew emerged in 1973 for a duo session with bassist Niels Pederson. For their rematch in 1974, Drew and Pederson performed one original apiece, five standards (including "A Child Is Born" and "My Shining Hour") and jazz interpretations of a couple of Scandinavian folk songs. ...

This One's for Bill (1999) more music like this

by Kenny Drew, Jr.

This tribute to Bill Evans is a winner from start to finish because Kenny Drew Jr. is able to show a hint of the late pianist's influence without going overboard. Except for the title track, a swinging original by Drew, the songs are either written by Evans or very much associated with him. Evans' "Remembering The Rain" is a pretty ballad that ...

Solo-Duo (1996) more music like this

by Kenny Drew

The talented, if underrated bebop pianist Kenny Drew spent his last few decades living in Scandinavia after emigrating from the U.S. in 1961. This 1996 CD has previously unreleased material recorded by the Danish Broadcast Corporation featuring Drew at three different periods in time. There are four tunes apiece of Drew in duets with bassist Niels ...

The mix takes in both swingers and blues and includes a sideman roster that ranges from Ben Webster to modern bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen. Besides such hard bop gems by Wynton Kelly ( ...

Trio-Quartet-Quintet (1956) more music like this

by Kenny Drew

Similar to other bop pianists like Tommy Flanagan, Wynton Kelly, and Red Garland, Kenny Drew came out of the Bud Powell mold to develop a distinct sound. Similar to another contemporary, Duke Jordan, Drew also cut his stateside career short by emigrating to Copenhagen, leaving many American jazz fans with only a taste of his talent. Fortunately, ...

And Far Away (1983) more music like this

by Kenny Drew Quartet

This Kenny Drew session from 1983 takes the pianist out of familiar hard bop territory, as he plays with guitarist Philip Catherine, bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, and drummer Barry Altschul. "And Far Away" gradually develops a bluesy air, though when it begins one can clearly hear the Scandinavian influence on the leader in this ...
