Description
“Jam Session” was compiled from a 1952 session which brought together three of history's greatest alto saxophonists; Charlie Parker, Johnny Hodges and Benny Carter, as well as Ben Webster and Flip Phillips on tenor sax, Barney Kessel on guitar and Charlie Shavers on trumpet. Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown and J. C. Heard form a solid rhythm section, which provides a fabulous swing machine. Part cutting contest, “Jam Session” utilizes blues-based riffs, jazz standards, and ballad medleys to serve not only as jousting platforms between the era's top instrumentalists but also as spotlight features, yielding some of the most memorable, undiluted (all being first takes with no edits), and extended solos in many of these musicians' careers. You get to hear serious and immediately identifiable instrumental voices right next to one another, even back to back as distinguishing foils. The since classic thirteen-plus minute "Funky Blues” is exemplary, featuring opening solos by three of the alto saxophone's prime architects: Hodges followed by Bird followed by Carter!
