Satin Brass (Japanese paper sleeve edition)
CD (Item 573552) Capitol (Japan), 1959 — Condition: New Copy
A perfect title for this lovely little gem from George Shearing – a set that mixes his familiar piano, vibes, and guitar with some bigger brass arrangements – yet all in a way that still shimmers with the sheen of satin! Shearing was smooth before anyone else could lay claim to the word – coming up with modes that really transformed jazz and other instrumental music in the 60s – perfectly illustrated on a record like this, which is light years away from any expectations you might have about a "with brass" session. Titles include "First Floor Please", "Night Flight", "A Ship Without A Sail", "Deep Night", "Just Plain Bill", "I Could Write A Book", and "Sleepy Manhattan". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
