HORACE SILVER

LIVE AT NEWPORT '58
Description:
Composer and pianist Horace Silver was one of the leading lights of the post bop movement, and Live At Newport '58 captures him in his prime. Leading a crack quintet which includes trumpeter Louis Smith and saxophonist Junior Cook through four slinking, swinging tunes, Silver turns in a wonderful set. The set opens with "Tippin'," a hard swinger, then segues to "The Outlaw," a composition in the classic Silver mode, incorporating exotic rhythms, complex melodic leads, and deep grooves. "Senor Blues," a cool toned blues, and "Cool Eyes," a frenetic bop workout, are equally impressive. The tunes are extended, and feature plenty of top flight improvisation from the musicians, making for a memorable live date worth picking up. Junior Cook tenor saxophone; Louis Smith trumpet; Gene Taylor acoustic bass; Louis Hayes drums; Gene Taylor.
