Free Music Notes for Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane
Free Music Review: karrin allyson and james carter
Hit: 5 Stars
with the recent release of john coltrane's ballads, from the original recording, this is the right time to mention karrin allyson's recording of his songs.
interestingly, allyson has chosen to record the eight songs in the order of appearance on coltrane's recording. additions to the coltrane ballads recording, are naima, why was i born?, and everytime we say goodbye.
i'd be out of my league were i to talk of pitch, timber and tone. so let me just say that as a lover of coltrane's ballads (you can't begin to imagine my disappointment over years in asking at record stores for a cd not yet made) she sounds alright to me.
and james carter on say it, all or nothing at all, and naima, is just icing on the cake.
tell karrin allyson, i love her.
Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane Poster
More than most tribute albums, singer Karrin Allyson's remembrance of John Coltrane makes a genuine attempt to relate to its subject--not only in retracing his 1961 offering, Ballads, song by song and luxuriating in the deep, swelling tenor sounds of Bob Berg and James Carter, but also in giving the tunes plenty of room to breathe. Resisting the temptation to dress them up with overt displays of style, she approaches them in a straightforward, emotionally understated fashion, capturing their essence with taste and intelligence. In the end, Allyson doesn't have quite enough color or depth to sustain such a long set of slow stuff (the album, also featuring Steve Wilson on soprano sax, concludes with three other ballads associated with Trane, notably his classic "Naima"). This is a singer who needs to breathe as much as sigh. But taken individually or in short doses, songs such as "Say It (Over and Over Again)" and "What's New" impart an exquisite sense of control. Allyson's radiant high notes never fail to move you. --Lloyd SachsJazz Music CDs
