Mal Waldron w/ Joe Henderson - One Entrance, Many Exits

 I think this is about it for Joe Fest, at least for me - if I think of anything else I'll be sure to post it; meanwhile this is one beautiful album that seems to be overlooked in the torrent of albums Mal made in the last couple decades he was with us. Some have raised issues with the sound mix, but Yanow liked it!

"It is a pity that this album is long out-of-print for the combination of musicians works quite well. Pianist Mal Waldron has an inside/outside post bop style that matches perfectly with tenor-saxophonist Joe Henderson, bassist David Friesen and drummer Billy Higgins. On five Waldron originals plus the standard "How Deep Is The Ocean," Henderson and the pianist are heard soloing in top form. Highlgihts include "Chazz Jazz" (dedicated to Charles Mingus), "Golden Golson" (which is purposely in the style of Benny Golson) and an ad-lib blues for the trio "Blues In 4 By 3." Scott Yanow

    Thnx KC. Waldron's preference for at least one horn in his sessions is interesting to me. Of course, there are a number of releases of him in the more familiar trio setting, but perhaps he thought the additional tonality of a horn added a different color to his work.

    I'd be interested in comments from others who know more about this than I do.

    Joe Henderson. Or: The Man Who Was Constitutionally Unable To Play A Bad Solo! Whether as a leader or a sideman Joe always delivers. Here he has a particularly hot, free-ranging solo on "Herbal Syndrome". Thanks for this album (new to me) and the other great Henderson posts and upgrades.
