Description

|
|
|
"One of the last great tenormen to emerge from the original hard-bop generation" (Penguin Guide), Joe Henderson (1937–2001) played for a time with Blood, Sweat, and Tears, and the compelling grooves that led to jazz-rock are present in these late '60s–early '70s recordings. Electric instruments were gaining greater acceptance, and more non-jazz sounds—soul, Afro-Caribbean, Latino—were also making inroads. Showing how expertly Henderson used ever-expanding tonal and rhythmic palettes are imperishable pieces like his "Recorda-Me" (piquantly revisited here as "No Me Esqueca") and "Black Narcissus." The latter receives a ravishing quartet treatment, featuring Herbie Hancock's ghostly electric piano, while a Latin groove imbues the moody "Canyon Lady." Also of note are "Blue Bossa," "Mamacita," and the dream-like "Black Is the Color (of My True Love's Mind)," on which Henderson overdubs tenor and soprano saxes, flute, and alto flute.
