Prestige BSIN01949249 Garland, Red - Red Garland's Piano (RVG) From The Mid·1950s to the early '60s, Red Garland's piano was one of jazz's most prevalent, and recognizable, sounds. When Garland (1923-1984) recorded this, his second album for Prestige, he was riding high as a member of Miles Davis's first “great quintet”. But Red's own LPs also generated a strong following. Loyal and casual fans alike were attracted to his bell-like black chords, left-hand punctuations suggesting a boxer peppering a speed bag, and urbane-bluesy feeling on ballads. Garland also had a “head for tunes,” and this set, comprised entirely of standards, plus on extended reading of Percy Mayfield's r&b classic “Please Send Me Someone to Love,” repeatedly displays just how much he loved playing them. As he often was on his Prestige sessions, Garland is accompanied by top-flight bassist (and Miles Davis bandmate) Paul Chambers and drummer Arthur Taylor, whose brushstrokes are sheer artistry.
I remember the sessions well, I remember how the musicians wanted to sound, and I remember their reactions to the playbacks. Today I feel strongly that I am their messenger. -Rudy Van Gelder.
