Editorial Reviews
From the Label
Coleman Hawkins, father of modern jazz saxophone, established the standards against which all other jazz saxophonists of his day were measured. Renowned for his aggressive swing and harmonic sophistication, Hawk never stopped growing over the course of a career spanning more than 40 years. From the hot swing of the Fletcher Henderson band in the late '20s to the hot bed of bebop innovation in the '40s and beyond, Hawkins was there to challenge and inspire generations of saxophonists. This 1963 session, his last with strings, finds the mature Hawkins in mellow, impeccably swinging form. Backed by the Frank Hunter Orchestra, Hawk wraps his full gruff tone around a program of tunes that includes arrangements of themes by Brahms and Shumann and some otherwise unavailable Hawkins originals. The Tradition reissue of this album includes new comprehensive liner notes and two bonus tracks left off the original album. The mastertapes were digitally remastered for this release.

4 out of 5 stars Straight Talk from "Jay Hawk".......2003-10-28

Most jazz fans will know Carmell Jones from his tenure with Horace Silver, but the trumpeter also made some excellent albums as a leader. "Jay Hawk Talk," recorded on 5/8/65 for the Prestige label, features Jimmy Heath on tenor sax, Barry Harris on piano, George Tucker on bass, and Roger Humphries on drums. The disc is split evenly between Jones originals (the title track, "Dance of the Night Child," and "Beepdurple") and standards. All of the tunes are thoroughly enjoyable, hard-swingin' numbers but I was hoping for something a bit more searching from Jones, more akin to his playing on "Song for My Father." Those interested in talking to "Jay Hawk" should note that this is a limited edition title, and it will fly away shortly. For further listening, also check out the recently issued "Mosaic Select" set featuring Carmell's recordings as both leader and sideman for the Pacific label.
