Free Music Review: Cannonball stands alone
Hit: 5 Stars
I'm a musician from Florida, been playing since before this album was new. The Adderley brothers, graduates of the great music program at Florida A&M University, have a reputation in their home state that resonates to this day.
Cannonball demonstrates here that a 12-bar blues gives you all you need to play brilliant stuff. I think every rock guitar hero and wannabe should have to go back to the woodshed until they can play at least four of Cannon's choruses from this album, note for note. That alone would raise the quality of rock music a couple orders of magnitude. Intensity, faithfulness to the blues idiom, wit, humor, great tone and a conversational, storytelling style. Sure, the tunes are substantial and challenging, and the arrangements are sophisticated stuff. But it's the solos that are truly brilliant, uplifting music, which musicians should study humbly for decades to come.
Them Dirty Blues Poster
It goes without saying that Julian "Cannonball" Adderley was one of the best blues players in jazz. Just ask his ex-boss Miles Davis. This 1960 date features the musician with his brother, cornetist Nat, bassist Sam Jones, drummer Louis Hayes, and either Bobby Timmons or Barry Harris on piano. Simply put, this is a textbook on how to swing the blues, whether on ballads such as "Easy Living" and George Gershwin's "Soon," or on the dancing hard bop number, "Work Song," Timmons's gospel-tinged "Dat Dere" and Duke Pearson's melodic classic, "Jeannine." Cannonball's sax lines combine the best of Benny Carter and Charlie Parker, contrasted by his brother's in-the-pocket cornet solos. The title track reveals the down-home roots of this Florida-born musician, who always carried the South in him. --Eugene Holley Jr.Jazz Music CDs
