Johnny Hartman was many a jazzman's favorite singer for his musical acumen, gorgeous voice, and the sheer class that he exuded. This collaboration with saxophonist John Coltrane was a major success in every way for both of them. Be assured that this is no gmere uest star turn for Coltrane since he's working as before with drummer Elvin Jones, bassist Jimmy Garrison and pianist McCoy Tyner. The list of great performances here extends from the nearly-defnitive version of ''Lush Life'' to ''They Say It’s Wonderful'' which sounds as though it is clad in black silk, to the lyrical ''My One And Only Love.'' right up to the light-footed rumba ''Autumn Serenade.'' Here are six true masterpieces which will get right under your skin. Llisten to how relaxed and self-assuredly the crooner’s great voice carries the melody, which is then taken up and continued by John Coltrane on his instrument. Coltrane's Ballads record and his work with Duke Ellington had already demonstrated that he was a master of slow tempi and in this album he once again paces slowly down this path. This dual-layered hybrid SACD was originally produced by Bob Thiele and recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in March of 1963. This title was originally announced as a single-layered, non-hybrid SACD at a lower price. This new, more expensive version will work on any CD or SACD player. |
