Nick Brignola • Flight Of The Eagle

 



Review
by Scott Yanow
This 1996 CD is an excellent all-around showcase for Nick Brignola, one of the top baritonists of the 1990s. Assisted by pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Victor Lewis, Brignola digs into four swinging originals, three standards (including "Body and Soul" and "A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody"), and Billy Taylor's "Diz." The music ranges from bop to post-bop, with each selection swinging and generating a strong momentum of its own. Recommended.

Este CD de 1996 es un excelente escaparate para Nick Brignola, uno de los mejores baritonistas de la década de 1990. Asistido por el pianista Kenny Barron, el bajista Rufus Reid y el baterista Victor Lewis, Brignola se adentra en cuatro originales con swing, tres standards (incluyendo "Body and Soul" y "A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody"), y "Diz" de Billy Taylor. La música oscila entre el bop y el post-bop, con cada selección oscilando y generando un fuerte impulso propio. Recomendado.
