Free Music Notes for Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section

Free Music Review: Classic Pepper!
Hit: 5 Stars

Art Pepper, who gained a lot of experience during his days with Stan Kenton and Benny Carter, has recorded some fine recordings as a leader and "Meets The Rhythm Section" is one of them. What an outstanding recording this is! From start to finish it swings and Pepper's lyrical approach to saxophone really makes the music speak. There are so many stories surrounding his personal life, but I would like to say that I don't care what these jazz musicians did in their own lives. What I think is most important is how the music is presented and how it sounds. Joining Pepper on this swinging journey are members of Miles Davis' band Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. Put aside whatever notion you have Art Pepper and give this album a try. Highly recommended.

Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section Poster

This CD contains two complete albums showcasing Art Pepper in a quartet setting: 1957's Meets the Rhythm Section, featuring Miles Davis' legendary rhythm section of Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones, and 1956's Marty Paich Quartet Featuring Art Pepper. 19 tracks. Essential Jazz Classics.
The rhythm section in question here belonged to Miles Davis in Los Angeles, one fine day in January 1957. Pepper had made a name for himself in Stan Kenton's band, but this was really the first time he found himself in the studio with a rhythm section such as Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones. In his fascinating biography, Straight Life, Pepper tells the story of the date when, after not playing for six months, he was told of the session that morning. He pieced together a broken horn, went in, and blew. Not completely remembering the first tune "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To," he voices a line that both invokes the melody and refashions it. The rest of the session shows just how high Pepper rose to the occasion. It's one of the most important recordings of his career. --Michael Monhart
