Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue (1963) [Jazz][mp3 320][h33t][schon55]

Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue Label: Blue Note (1987) Total time: 43:54 Bitrate: 320 kbps This album is one of guitarist Kenny Burrell's best-known sessions for the Blue Note label. Burrell is matched with tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, bassist Major Holley, drummer Bill English, and Ray Barretto on conga for a blues-oriented date highlighted by "Chitlins Con Carne," "Midnight Blue," "Saturday Night Blues," and the lone standard "Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You." ~ by Scott Yanow, AMG As far as jazz guitar on Blue Note records goes, there are two names you must know: Grant Green and Kenny Burrell. And while Grant's discography for Blue Note is humungous, Kenny did much of his recording as a sideman. But the numbers are all irrelevant when you listen to this masterpiece -- seven tunes that reach deep, deep into the blues and achieve that wonderfully lazy, after hours groove. The performances are all classic, from the Latin groove of "Chitlins con Carne", to the brisk swing of the title track, to the solo guitar of "Soul Lament". Stanley Turrentine's soulful saxophone playing is among his finest, and the bass/drums/conga rhythm section is impeccable at setting up a groove. And the leader provides tasty guitar playing that mixes bebop lines and bluesy feeling perfectly. As far as hearing some classic jazz guitar, Midnight Blue and Grant Green's Idle Moments album are a perfect start. ~ Amazon. com Personnel: Kenny Burrell (Guitar) Stanley Turrentine (Tenor Saxophone) Major Holley Jr. (Double Bass) Bill English (Drums) Ray Barretto (Conga) Tracks: 01 Chitlins Con Carne (Kenny Burrell) 5:29 02 Mule (Major Holley/Kenny Burrell) 6:57 03 Soul Lament (Kenny Burrell) 2:43 04 Midnight Blue (Kenny Burrell) 4:00 05 Wavy Gravy (Kenny Burrell) 5:47 06 Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You (Andy Razaf/Don Redman) 4:25 07 Saturday Night Blues (Kenny Burrell) 6:16 08 Kenny's Sound (Kenny Burrell) 4:43 09 K Twist* (Kenny Burrell) 3:34 * Bonus track
