About this product
Besides his reputation as Inchthe definitive swing pianistInch, Teddy Wilson is often remembered in terms of his collaborations. Having played on the records of names like Louis Armstrong, Lena Horne, Ella Fitzgerald and Benny Goodman, Wilson's fingerprints are found on many of records that helped popularize and define swing in it's glory years. In 1980, Wilson revisited the songs he had performed with Benny Goodman in the 1930s, delivering material that he had clearly mastered at this point and which gave a special look into the talents and sentiments of Teddy Wilson that played a primary role in the swing era. Teddy Wilson Trio Revisits the Goodman Years sees Teddy Wilson re-portray the Benny Goodman small-group repertoire that Wilson had played with Goodman many decades before this Copenhagen session in 1980. It is a return to material that had stood the test of time while Wilson had lived a long career since his time with Goodman himself. Of the many collaborators that Wilson enjoyed in his career, Goodman in particular developed a strong, long-lived musical relationship with Teddy Wilson, incorporating the aspects and strengths of Wilson's playing that are particularly apparent on this record. Relaxed and elegant, Wilsons mastery of the piano sounds as graceful as ever while maintaining a sense of intensity that comes through with renewed clarity in the present line-up. Wilson has not reinvented himself in returning to these songs, but his talent and infectious and exciting playing make it hard to argue that he should.

Various Artists - Vocal Point [VINYL LP] date 07/31/2020
Pieces' is the meeting of two generations - The experienced and mature the trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg and the guitarist Bjarne Roupé and the two young and ready Anton Langebæk on bass and the percussionist Benjamin Barfod. Bjarne Roupé Trio had been with Langebæk and Barfod for a while, and when Palle Mikkelborg was set to play a concert for Jazz Grooves at JB10 in Næstved, it was obvious that the four musicians worked together this evening. It became a success and the musicians took the initiative to use the recordings for this . Here it is 'Pieces Generations at Sunrise' - five well-chosen compositions with Roupé's overview and broad sounds, Langebæk's pulsating bass, Barfod's distinctive percussion and Mikkelborg's trumpet and flugelhorn on top. We get extremely personal renditions of John Coltrane's InchNaimaInch and the Abez classic InchNature BoyInch. A Swedish folk melody, InchSaudiInch, with a beautiful guitar intro and more of the same sonorous element in the opening track InchWitchi-tai-toInch, which is carried on by Barfod's gubal. The fine little theme is presented only at the end. Coltrane's great ballad InchNaimaInch is performed for the first time in the history of music with sansula. In the collectively composed and arranged InchPiecesInch, there are fanfares with electronics underneath, and Langebæk rounds off with a very solid bass solo. InchNature boyInch gets new and very beautiful life with Mikkelborg's horn followed by a very well-playing Roupé.
