Larry Kart Posted March 13, 2017 Report Posted March 13, 2017 Just getting into some of the recent SC Gregory Tardy albums. Talented, individual, soulful player. Quote
Late Posted April 10, 2017 Report Posted April 10, 2017 This is an excellent debut recording. At first I thought Riley was simply copping Gonsalves and Webster, but no. He puts his own spin on the breathy tenor approach. And I usually don't care for the obligatory soprano double on a few tunes, but this album slapped me straight. I've never quite heard soprano playing like this, where Riley's soprano almost sounds like a C-melody saxophone. Bizarre, and really nice. (There's also one tune with alto clarinet.) Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 10, 2017 Report Posted April 10, 2017 Riley is good -- at one point Derek Taylor made me a comp of Riley cuts and it's quite strong. Probably from among his first few Steeplechases; it's been a while so I've forgotten what was from where. Quote
