Hit: 5 Stars
Joel Frahm makes his most realized artistic statement to date with "We Used To Dance." Accompanied by the late Stan Getz' last rhythm section of Kenny Barron, Rufus Reid, and Victor Lewis, the tenor saxophonist comes across as very much his own man- something of a traditionalist with a modernist slant.
Possessing a slightly thinner tone than Getz', Frahm's sense of phrasing and lyricism is every bit as assured as the tenor legend's. From his own pen he mines "Bob's Blues" to great effect. Elsewhere "Jobimiola" is a breezy toe-tapping bossa, "A Whole New You" and "The Dreamer" bristle briskly along, and the gorgeous title track is worthy of becoming a standard.
On "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most" Frahm absolutely sparkles as he renders one of the loveliest readings I've ever heard of this oft recorded gem.
Frahm is a talent worthy of occupying a place in every well-versed listening library. If you have yet to discover him this is an ideal and highly recommended place to start.
We Used to Dance Poster
Working with pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Victor Lewis on a straight-ahead jazz session would be a real treat for anyone. It turns out to be especially fruitful for tenor saxophonist Joel Frahm, who delivers this program of standards and originals with an artists delicate touch. The proud owner of a rich, luxurious tone, the saxophonist interprets ballads, blues and up-tempo romps with clarity while swinging in a rhythmic groove when the situation permits. He and this stellar trio are equally at ease with tender ballads such as Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most, My Ideal and Barrons Song for Abdullah as they are with quick burners such as Frahms exotic Jobimiola and his adventurous A Whole New You.
