专辑简介
Recorded live in Tokyo on July 14th and 15th, 1963, Nippon Soul is not the Asian-jazz fusion suggested by the title (check out Cal Tjader's Several Shades of Jadeand Breeze From the Eastfor that), but a solid live set that showcases one of Cannonball Adderley's finest groups, featuring himself, brother Nat Adderleyon cornet, bassist Sam Jones, drummer Louis Hayes, and most notably pianist Joe Zawinuland reedsman Yusef Lateef. Both near the beginnings of their careers, Zawinuland Lateefnonetheless dominate this set; two of the original tracks are by Lateef, including the centerpiece "Brother John," for John Coltraneand featuring an astonishing extended Lateefsolo on oboe, an instrument not normally associated with jazz, but which takes on an almost Middle Eastern fluidity and grace in its approximation of Coltrane's "sheets of sound" technique. Zawinularranged the standards for the group, reinterpreting Cole Porter's warm "Easy to Love" as a fleet bebop vehicle for a wicked Adderley solo and working the "Come Sunday" section of Duke Ellington's "Black, Brown and Beige" into a full gospel-style call and response between himself and Jones. Often overlooked, this is one of Adderley's finest albums. The CD reissue includes an extra track, an extended take on "Work Song."
