AMG:

Pianist Red Garland and his trio ( with bassist Sam Jones and drummer Art Taylor ) explore six veteran blues-based compositions ranging from Nellie Lutcher's "He's a Real Gone Guy" and "St. Louis Blues" to "Your Red Wagon" and Count Basie's "M Squad Theme." Throughout, Garland modernizes each of the selections with his distinctive chord voicings and he makes the songs sound fresh and new. A solid effort from this very consistent pianist who will always be best remembered for his playing with the classic Miles Davis Quintet.



I have been a Red Garland junkie ever since I first heard him on Miles Davis's 'Round Midnight'.Thanks to Red,'Bye Bye Blackbird is still my favorite Miles ' from his first great quintet. I am unsure which of the several Red Garland trio cd's is my favorite-my only complaint on all of them is just that they aren't long enough.In any case,what caught my eye on 'Red in Bluesville' was his 'Theme from M Squad'. Red, with Arthur Taylor on drums and Sam Jones on bass should also be a 'must buy' for anyone in St. Louis for their version of ' The St. Louis Blues. ~ jaywilton
