Nice An' Cool

Add to Cart$16.99 ... LP
(€12.60 || £10.70 || ¥1594) (approx.)
LP (Item 15041) Prestige/Moodsville, 1961 — Condition: Very Good

Nice and cool, but not in a west coast way – and instead a set that's got Gene Ammons working some wonderfully soulful magic on a set of gentle ballads! The set's got a brilliant late nite sort of feel – one of those tenor albums that seems to sound even better in the space past midnight – as the warm glow from Ammons' horn seems to sparkle even more strongly in the dark – standing out with that stark, spare approach that always makes his ballad work so special – and unlike just about anyone else. The group here is nice and cool too – with Richard Wyands on piano, Doug Watkins on bass, and JC Heard on drums – and titles include "Someone To Watch Over Me", "I Remember You", "Willow Weep For Me", and "Till There Was You". (Green label Moodsville pressing, in a Status cover. Cover has some wear and clear tape on the seams.)  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
