Hank Jones, Jimmy Cobb, Christian McBride - West of 5th
Referencia: Chesky CCRJ 313 SA - Hybrid Stereo SACD
West of 5th is an exciting jazz
recording that features pianist Hank Jones, bassist Christian McBride
and drummer Jimmy Cobb. Listeners are offered a unique opportunity to
hear two esteemed veterans playing with a stellar young musician. Jones
and Cobb first rose to fame performing with talents as diverse as Miles
Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Hot Lips Page and others. McBride, meanwhile,
only came to prominence in the 1990s. Though the latter musician is less
than half the age of Jones and Cobb, the trio's interaction on West of 5th
could not be more fluid. The rhythmic interplay between McBride and
Cobb is particularly strong since it comes on the heels of Chesky's
recent New York Time SACD, which featured those two musicians along with Cedar Walton and Javon Jackson.
West of 5th is the fifth of seven titles to be released as part of Chesky's The New York Sessions series. This collection features the greatest jazz musicians of today recorded with Chesky Records' state-of-the-art technology.
