Modern Jazz Quartet en concert le 3 octobre 1966 au Studio 104 le Maison de la Radio à Paris (1/2)

Avec le Modern Jazz Quartet, l’élégance des smokings n’est pas incompatible avec le swing, le contrepoint sophistiqué, la polyphonie savante peuvent générer une forte sensation de blues, et chaque soliste improvise avec lyrisme en conservant la rigueur collective d'un ensemble de musique de chambre…

France Musique

Know What I Mean? is a 1962 jazz album by alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley, accompanied by Bill Evans and the rhythm section of the Modern Jazz Quartet.

Adderley and Evans had recorded previously both with the Miles Davis Sextet—most notably on Kind of Blue—and on two of Adderley's earlier recordings as a leader, Portrait of Cannonball and Jump for Joy. Adderley had previously recorded several times with bassist Percy Heath but not with drummer Connie Kay.[2] Evans had recorded previously with both rhythm players several times, including on John Lewis's film soundtrack for Odds Against Tomorrow.

The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars out of 4, stating: "The quartet date with Bill Evans was one of the last chances to hear [Adderley] as sole horn, and he sounds fine." - Wikipedia

(I always wanted to play like Freddie Hubbard when I played trumpet as a kid. It's nice to have unrealistic goals.)

Bill Evans - Interplay

Jim Hall is featured so much on this great album that I'm surprised he's not considered the leader.

Anyway, great new mastering on OJC/Craft of this 1962 classic with Evans (piano), Hall (guitar), Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Percy Heath (bass), and Philly Joe Jones (drums).

Essential music, mastering, pressing, and if you've only got an old copy, worth the upgrade.
