The Toughest Tenors

Vinyl LP.

Mycket gott skick. 2-LP, Milestone M-47035 (1960-62 / 1974). Två tenorsaxofonister med mycket muskler - Johnny Griffin och Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis - samsas här på en dubbel-LP med musik hämtad från ett antal inspelningstillfällen under 1960-talets tidiga år. Bland medmusikerna märks Junior Mance, Horace Parlan, Buddy Catlett, Ben Riley m fl. Utvikningskonvolut med text av Burt Korall. 13 spår."During the early '60s, Johnny Griffin and Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis matched forces and put together a consistently exciting quintet. The two tenors (both of whom had very distinctive sounds) brought out the best in each other in these frequently combative encounters. This two-LP set has 13 selections taken from five separate albums and gives one a well-rounded portrait of the legendary group. The music ranges from bop standards to a trio of Thelonious Monk tunes." (Scott Yanow, allmusic.com) Vinyl Mycket gott skick . USA-pressning.
