Freddie Redd - Hampton Hawes • Piano EastWest



Review by Scott Yanow
This CD reissue has two unrelated early sessions from pianists Hampton Hawes and Freddie Redd. Hawes, heard in a quartet with vibraphonist Larry Bunker, bassist Clarence Jones and drummer Larence Marable, already ranked as one of the top bop-based pianists in 1952. He performs eight straight-ahead numbers (five bop standards and three originals like "Hamp's Paws"), including a two-minute version of "Move" that lives up to its name. Redd, who recorded much less during his longer career, stretches out a bit more on four numbers (including three originals) in a trio with bassist John Ore and drummer Ron Jefferson. Excellent music, easily recommended to bop collectors.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Esta reedición en CD contiene dos sesiones tempranas no relacionadas de los pianistas Hampton Hawes y Freddie Redd. Hawes, en un cuarteto con el vibrafonista Larry Bunker, el bajista Clarence Jones y el batería Larence Marable, ya era uno de los mejores pianistas de bop en 1952. Interpreta ocho temas directos (cinco estándares de bop y tres originales como "Hamp's Paws"), incluida una versión de dos minutos de "Move" que hace honor a su nombre. Redd, que grabó mucho menos durante su larga carrera, se estira un poco más en cuatro números (incluyendo tres originales) en un trío con el bajista John Ore y el batería Ron Jefferson. Música excelente, fácilmente recomendable a los coleccionistas de bop.
