Bobby Hutcherson is one of those musician's musicians you just can't pin down, He starts his career doing hard bop. Turn around, he is as edgey as firebrand Archie Shepp when Shepp drafted the vibes player for his band. This avant garud.......wait a minute, he is cooking a soul jazz record, San Francisco. A few months pass, and he is exploring race politics on Now with Gene McDaniels.
Dialouge is classified as an avant-jazz record, and this does have its merits. There is some fantastic open jamming here. Listen to the fourth track. But this label also sells this album short. There are blues jams, a wonderfully errie march, and a hard bop cooker that opens Dialouge.
Blue Note in 1965, when this was recorded, was an interesting record company. It did not have the firebrand reputation of Impulse!, where the heaviest of the heavies developed the "new thing." But Blue Note allowed its hard bop roster to experiment with the avant gaurde as it became more and more dominent. By 1965, Coltrane had made Ascention, and the new thing was king. Cecil Taylor took this to the limit on Blue Note, but for most on the label, avant gaurde was only another spice for the stew.
Dialouge is one of the best products of this brief window in jazz, where the floodgates opened and anything could musically happen, and usually did.
Listen to this Dialouge happen.
