Free Music Review: Terence & Blue Note: A Match made in Heaven
Hit: 3 Stars
Terence Blanchard is an artist that I have always been drawn to. From first hearing him on Music From Mo' Better Blues (1990 Film), then on the score of Sugar Hill (1994) to his other film score likeTerence Blanchard's Original Orchestral Score From The Motion Picture Clockers, he has a wide and varied career. This, his second CD for the famous Blue Note label, is a jazz musical adventure. Produced by the great Herbie Hancock, things kick off with Flow ( Part 1), which is a sparse piece, with a haunting baseline, that has Terence meandering in & out of this song. Haunting. Wadagbe (intro) precedes the same full length tune that has African sounding vocals introducing this, before Terence comes in and takes control.
'Benny's Tune' is an altogether different track, which is softer in tone, with very subtle vocals. Very smoothing, and relaxing. Wandering Wonder is a Blanchard composition, that sounds like work he has done on Romantic Defiance, a busy jazz song, with piano drums, and of course trumpet in effect. Flow (Part 2), continues where part one left off (I like how, like his soundtracks, particularly Inside Man (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) he has a familiar song that reappears throughout the CD.
Other highlights include' The Source' 'Over There, ( which sounds like it should be in When the Levees Broke. Melancholy. Flow part 3. and my favorite cut, Harvesting Dance. This isn't my favorite Terence CD, that honor goes to The Heart Speaks, but this is a varied Blanchard release.
Flow Poster
Flow is trumpet player Terence Blanchard's second album for Blue Note. Over the years Blue Note's recorded some of the best trumpeters the world has ever known; from Miles Davis and Lee Morgan to Freddie Hubbard and Don Cherry. Terence Blanchard manages to successfully draw on the label's rich history, moving with ease from a ballad like "Over There" to the organic build and insistent propulsion of the album's longest track, "Harvesting Dance." He embraces melodic precision, but always in accord with a resonant emotional foundation. Producer Herbie Hancock is a perfect fit for this project, bridging the traditional realms of post-bop and modernist inclinations. --David GreenbergerProduced by the artist and four-time Grammy winner Herbie Hancock, Flow heralds nothing less than the brilliant second act of Blanchard's already extraordinary career. Flow is TB's rambunctiously heated answer to those unenlightened few who doubted that this chill master of the urbane film score (Mo' Better Blues, Malcolm X, Barbershop) could get down. Indeed, Flow not only showcases Blanchard's prodigious instrumental and composing skills; it reveals him to be both a shrewd judge of young talent and a bandleader of Milesian dimension and magnitude as well.
