Full title is: Art & Perception This Gambit disc compiles two separate sessions ( Art and Perception ) led by Art Farmer, made separately from the Jazztet (which he co-led with Benny Golson ). The 1960 recordings featured on the first album featured Tommy Flanagan, Tommy Williams and Albert 'Tootie' Heath with the trumpeter, playing show tunes and chestnuts in an elegant fashion that has stood the test of time. On the latter LP recorded the following year, Harold Mabern replaces Flanagan and Roy McCurdy takes over for Heath, with Farmer switching to the richer-toned flugelhorn. In addition to standards, the quartet explores two fine if unjustly obscure originals by the leader, along with the mellow 'The Day After' (penned by Jazztet sideman Tom McIntosh ). After being out of print for decades, both albums were issued individually overseas, as well as being joined for Art & Perception and collected with recordings by the Jazztet and Benny Golson in a Mosaic limited-edition boxed set. No matter how it is acquired, both sessions are among Art Farmer's best work of the '60s. ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide Two albums on one CD by Art and his quartet: Art was recorded in 1960 while Perception was done the following year. This release is the fullest and most complete evocation yet of Art Farmer as a soloist. Art had been thinking about and planning for this set for a year before he went into the studio. Over a long period of time, Art picked tunes he liked, including several that are rarely if ever performed in a Jazz context. Featuring Tommy Flanagan, Harold Mabern and Albert 'Tootie' Heath. Gambit. 2006. |
