Cliff Jordan & John Gilmore
Jordan & Gilmore were big guns in Chicago & unknown elsewhere when they made this album with the dream team of Horace Silver, Curly Russell & Art Blakey. Jordan would become a kingpin of the New York hard bop scene & Gilmore would immerse himself in the world of Sun Ra, but these tenor masters were completely in sync for this great Blue Note session. 1st released as Blue Note BLP 1549 (1957).
Blowing In From Chicago features tenor saxophonist John Gilmore as a co-leader. After this 1957 session, he spent the rest of his career in Sun Ra’s band, hardly ever making any albums under his own name. This adversely affected Gilmore’s legacy, since his name has largely been overlooked by younger jazz audiences. However, Gilmore’s performance here is 1st-rate, & is matched by fellow tenor sax player Clifford Jordan. Throughout the record, it’s apparent that this pairing of like minds is ideal. Drummer Art Blakey also asserts himself on this album, especially on the highly rhythmic “Billie’s Bounce,” a Charlie Parker tune he popularized with the Jazz Messengers. The Latin-flavored Jordan original “Bo-Till” is one of Blowing In From Chicago’s highlights, as is his funky blues number “Evil Eye.” This is classic hard bop played by some of its most skillful practitioners. Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey on March 3, 1957. Originally released on Blue Note (1549). Includes liner notes by Joe Segal. This version mastered for SACD by Kevin Gray & Steve Hoffman at AcousTech Mastering.
