Swiss Radio Days Vol 28 – Kenny Wheeler & Alan Skidmore

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 626404) TCB (Switzerland), 1978/1979 — Condition: New Copy

Two 70s jazz giants, three different recordings, all of them wonderful! The set's a perfect showcase for both the trumpet of Kenny Wheeler and tenor of Alan Skidmore – as the recordings, done with the Jazz Live Trio of pianist Klaus Koenig, offer plenty of space for each soloist to stretch out and really do their thing – most importantly in the sort of straighter jazz setting that wasn't always recorded at this point in each player's career. Wheeler begins the album on long takes of "Come Sunday" and "A Simple Toon" – then Skidmore really smokes on "Would Jubilee Vit" and "K & A Blues" – and the last tracks feature work by both soloists together, on "Ruby Doo" and "Red Daffodil".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
