Product Description

Down Beat (3/93, p.33) - 5 Stars - Excellent - "...[Henderson] is masterful throughout this well-sequenced program, toasting sublime lyricism on `Miles Ahead,' invoking Iberian mysteries on `Flamenco Sketches,' and summoning fire on `Side Car'...This is an excellent Miles album..."
JazzTimes (5/95, p.64) - "...There is a love of material and fellow musicians that is readily apparent in the way these four address this date that really completes the package. This could be the first great record of 1993."
Musician (4/93, p.90) - "...every inch as potent as his heralded tribute to Billy Strayhorn....cool and painterly and heroically laid-back..."
Q Magazine (6/93, p.97) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...It's refreshing to reflect on Davis as a composer rather than a soloist or band leader...Particular successes are `Circle' and `Flamenco Sketches,' where Henderson's sax really stretches out..."
Entertainment Weekly (12/31/93, p.117) - Cited by Entertainment Weekly as one of `The Best Jazz Records Of 1993' - "...gorgeously, agelessly, tortured music..."

 デイヴ・ホランド(b)とアル・フォスター(...

投稿日:2002/12/03 (火)

 デイヴ・ホランド(b)とアル・フォスター(ds)の二人が繰り出す、手数は決して多くないのに堅固なビートが光る。その空間にJ・ヘンダーソンとJ・スコフィールドがトロロ昆布のようにからみつく。選曲も渋い。「ディレクションズ」とかもやって欲しかったが。
