Now playing:

[Chuck Nessa]

[Jim Duckworth]

 

[Larry Kart]

A 23-piece first-class West Coast rather Kentonesque orchestra, two French horns, multiple woodwinds, two basses used as a section in a striking manner etc. Richmond's textural sense is often exquisite and novel, and his ability to build to bold climaxes is notable too. Not for everyone perhaps, but I find it fascinating. Wish that Richmond had allotted more solo space for himself; he's a fine ballsy altoist; I remember him from John Garvey's U. of Illinois band of the late '60s. There's a successor to this one, an overt Kenton tribute that I've ordered, and several excellent small group Richmond albums with trumpeter Clay Jenkins.

Britt Woodman, Joe Wilder, John Laporta – Playing For Keeps

This one is nice. Esoteric cool. Similar to Giuffre or early LaPorta.

Great album. My only complaint is that Billy Higgins is so low in the mix he is hardly audible.
