Classic Chick Corea. I bought this CD in 1993 after having been exposed to Chick's Akoustic and Elektric bands in 1991. At this point I was starting to get into jazz and decided that Now He Sings, Now He Sobs would be my first jump into Chick's back catalog.
I couldn't have picked a better CD to start with. It was his first major release as a leader and was still early enough in his career for me to hear him developing his style. Now, he certainly had that 'Chick' sound in his playing but I could tell he was pushing himself in different directions. I really liked his hard bop playing in some of his solos. I think this album and his earlier work with Blue Mitchell showcase him having a mastery of the jazz idiom of the time and I like how this set shows him still fluent in that style of playing while branching out and generally just playing more like 'Chick' than just playing in the vein of other jazz pianists of the time.
The backing on this set is also superb. One of my favorite parts is during "Matrix" when Miroslav Vitous takes a bass solo. It is a solo in the true sense of the word because Chick and drummer Roy Haynes totally lay off while Miroslav gets into some awesome bass improv. Elsewhere, Miroslav and Roy present a tight background for Chick to take solo flight over and over again from bop numbers to ballads like "My One And Only Love."
Also featured here are some pieces that, at the time, probably qualified for the 'avant garde' or even 'free jazz' labels. While they are interesting in their own right, they don't necessarily grab me for any reason other than that they show hints of where Chick would end up during and after his fusion days.
All in all, it's a great buy and a must have for anyone who is a fan of Chick in all his stylistic incarnations. The musicianship from all players is top notch, Chick is in perfect form and the setlist is varied and keeps things interesting.
