Red Garland - Red Alert

Review by artiv3rse .

Red Alert by Red Garland is a classic jazz album that showcases the pianist's skills in creating a smooth and sophisticated sound. The album features Garland's signature style of bluesy and soulful playing, accompanied by a talented group of musicians.

The opening track, "Red Alert," sets the tone for the album with its upbeat tempo and catchy melody. The song features Garland's nimble fingers dancing across the keys, backed by the tight rhythms of Paul Chambers on bass and Art Taylor on drums.

Other standout tracks include "The Very Thought of You," a romantic ballad that showcases Garland's ability to create a warm and intimate atmosphere with his playing. "Blues in the Closet" is another highlight, with Garland and his bandmates trading solos and building up the energy to a fiery climax.

Great Garland! Thank you.
From the back of the OJC release:
The full sextet is heard on "Red Alert" and on "Sweet Georgia Brown." (On both, Land–who solos first–is on the listener's left; Sullivan on the right.) Adderley is the only horn on "Theme for a Tarzan Movie," Sullivan on "The Whiffenproof Song," and Land on "Stella By Starlight."
"It's Impossible" is played by piano, bass, and drums only.
Get this one! :I:

Plaisant...
Mais il est vrai qu'on sent un set un peu languissant pour les sax et le cornet.
En blues Red & Ron eussent pu certainement mieux !
