I'm not the only one to have found this album disappointing. We have four masters who have appeared on albums that draw me back time and again, but somehow this one doesn't catch fire. Anyone out there agree - or rather, who was it who said this last time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone out there agree - or rather, who was it who said this last time? There is a dedicated "Hampton Hawes" thread started by forum member "catesta" on March 9th, 2004 - but all mentions of "For Real" are positive .... nevertheless its ok to have different valuations .... for what it's worth, I did have different expectations from Harold Land's "The Fox" (probably based in Dupree Bolton's fantastic playing on "Katanga") but over the time learned to appreciate the platter for what it is .... Edited August 15, 2017 by soulpope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duaneiac Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 While I trust and hope it was the right decision for her personally, I for one am really sorry that Esther Satterfield decided not to pursue her musical career longer than she did. She's probably best known for her singing with Chuck Mangione's band (particularly "Land of Make Believe"). Mangione produced this, her first album, and some associates of his are heard here: Gerry Niewood, Don Potter, and his brother Gap. The material ranges from the title track to "For Once In My Life' to "Lift Every Voice and Sing" to a Miriam Makeba song to this soulful (and perhaps prophetically titled) song: https://youtu.be/vbSpfwuQAW8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
