Joe HENDERSON & Wynton KELLY - Trio Straight, No Chaser 1996

Joe HENDERSON & Wynton KELLY - Trio Straight, No Chaser 1996

Jazz

These magnificent renditions of jazz standards (plus few lesser known songs) are precisely what I have expected from such a great group.
Joe Henderson (together with Charles Mingus and very few others) often sounds as if jazz history exists only to give him fuel for his playing, whereas the powerhouse Wynton Kelly trio (Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb !), relatively fresh from the Miles Davis experiences (or at least influenced by Miles), shines brightly - although their more mellow side on "If you could see me now" is no match to their forceful interaction to good old Joe... Make no mistake, Henderson is the star of this album, with Kelly trio giving him the springboard for flights of musical fancy.

Recommended to all the fans of modern jazz and of Joe Henderson...
'Tis pity Kelly died too young to develop further (or at least to keep doing his thing for few decades more).
