Review by Karen Logan

Buddy Tate Meets Abdullah Ibrahim is an album that brings together two legendary jazz musicians, Buddy Tate and Abdullah Ibrahim. The album features a collection of eight tracks, each showcasing the unique talents of these two artists.

The album opens with "For Duke and Cannon," a tribute to Duke Ellington and Cannonball Adderley. The track is a swinging number that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The album also features two Abdullah Ibrahim compositions, "The Mountain" and "Cape Town Blues," which highlight Ibrahim's African roots and his unique approach to jazz.

Tate's saxophone playing is smooth and soulful throughout the album, and his chemistry with Ibrahim is evident in every track. Ibrahim's piano playing is equally impressive, with his use of African rhythms and melodies adding a distinct flavor to the music.
