HMV Review

Most of bassist Slam Stewart's sessions as a leader were concentrated during the last 20 years of his life. This 1971 recording features Stewart with pianist Milt Buckner and drummer Jo Jones in a swing-filled if somewhat predictable atmosphere. Slam Bam is a fun-filled roller coaster blues powered by the leader's strong bassline, Buckner's forceful block chords and Jones' matchless brushwork. The remaining tracks are pretty much familiar ground for Stewart, including yet another version of his big hit The Flat Foot Floogee (co-written with Slim Gaillard) that occasionally switches to its pre-censored title The Flat Foot Floozie; plus potent standards such as C Jam Blues, Oh, Lady be Good, Sweet Georgia Brown, and Ain't Misbehavin'. Stewart's octave unison vocals are present on a number of tracks, and they will get tiresome for all but his most devout fans, though this studio date is definitely worth acquiring. ~ Ken Dryden, Rovi
