Об альбоме (сборнике)
In 1956 drummer Art Taylor formed a group called Taylor’s Wailers. Donald Byrd & Charlie Rouse were members of the working group that debuted at The Pad, a Greenwich Village nightclub on Sheridan Square booked by Bob Reisner, the man who had run the legendary Open Door Sessions. In 1957 Taylor recorded the Wailers for Prestige, adding the alto saxophone of Jackie McLean to the front line. Two of the highlights are the Thelonious Monk compositions, “Well, You Needn’t” & “Off Minor,” with arrangements by Thelonious himself. One track, “C.T.A.,” by Jimmy Heath, is from another session featuring John Coltrane backed by Red Garland, Paul Chambers, & Taylor, a potent Prestige studio combination in those days. There have been many distinguished drummer-leaders in jazz. One expects their groups to be rhythmically exciting. Taylor’s Wailers are no exception to this swinging heritage.
About the prestige re-issues:
AudAud review:
Art Taylor was a 1st-choice drummer for Prestige Records for their all-star “jam session” recording dates of the mid to late 1950s. On the side Taylor assembled a group called Taylor’s Wailers that was reformed in the 1990s when Art returned from a 2 decade stay in Europe. Included in the initial group were Donald Byrd & Charlie Rouse. Bob Weinstock, who headed Prestige was approached & gave a “thumbs-up” for Art to record the Wailers. In 1957, when The Wailers were recorded it did not create the stir that a group of this stature would generate today. Then it was just a recording date for Prestige roster musicians – most went on to super-star status.
Analogue Productions has recently re-issued Taylor’s Wailers in SACD format. Mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, mono never sounded so good. Art’s tasty drum rolls & stick work are crisp and vibrant, a real step up from the red book CD issue. The same can be said for the Rouse, McLean, & Byrd, whose centre stage talents are wonderfully rendered. Witness “Cubano Chant” where McLean’s acidic alto tone & Byrd’s warm mellifluous trumpet are featured. Ray Bryant on piano is the perfect accompanist & Art provides the underpinning glue.
Monk’s “Off Minor” & “Well You Needn’t” provide bop opportunities for band members to show their bona fides. “C.T.A” is the sole track for the Philly contingent of Coltrane, Garland, & Taylor. John & Red were members of Miles Davis Quintet at the time, & as Davis was then a Prestige artist, all was well, & we get the end result with Coltrane fully featured.
We can only dream of being in the recording studio of Rudy Van Gelder when these tracks were laid down. Thanks to Analogue Productions, however, we can get as close to Rudy’s studio, as is legally permissible. For the sound quality & the band personnel, this SACD will get a lot of action on your home audiophile equipment. ~Jeff Krow
