Description
Barney Kessel - Kessel Plays Standards
Year: 1955 Label: OJC (1987, Dig. Remastered) Total time: 39:52 Quality: 320 kbps Guitarist Barney Kessel teams up with Bob Cooper (mostly on oboe but also doubling a bit on tenor), either Claude Williamson or Hampton Hawes on piano, Monty Budwig or Red Mitchell on bass, and Shelly Manne or Chuck Thompson on drums. Other than his own "64 Bars on Wilshire" and "Barney's Blues," the repertoire on this CD reissue is comprised of jazz standards. Inventive frameworks and the utilization of Cooper's jazz oboe (a real rarity in jazz of the time) give the otherwise boppish reissue its own personality. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG Personnel: Barney Kessel (Guitar) Bob Cooper (Tenor Saxophone and Oboe) Hampton Hawes (Piano) - 5,6,10,11 Claude Williamson (Piano) - 1-4,7-9,12 Monty Budwig (Double Bass) - 1-4,7-9,12 Shelly Manne (Drums) - 1-5,7-12 Red Mitchell (Double Bass) - 5,6,10,11 Chuck Thompson (Drums) - 6 Barney Kessel - Kessel Plays Standards Tracks: 01 Speak Low (Kurt Weil/Ogden Nash) 2:45 02 Love is Here to Stay (George Gershwin/Ira Gerswin) 3:26 03 On a Slow Boat to China (Frank Loester) 3:18 04 How Long Has This Been Going On?
