Carmell Jones - Business Meetin
Review by Robert E. Kostka Castro
Carmell Jones' album "Business Meetin" is a perfect example of his exceptional jazz trumpet skills. Released in 1962, this album is a classic piece of hard bop jazz that showcases the talents of Jones and his bandmates. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, including the popular standard "Willow Weep for Me."
Jones' trumpet playing is simply outstanding throughout the album, with his rich and soulful tone shining through on every track. His improvisational skills are on full display, particularly on the upbeat tracks like "Stellisa" and "Jay Hawk Talk." The rhythm section, featuring pianist Harold Land, bassist George Tucker, and drummer Leo Wright, is tight and energetic, providing the perfect backdrop for Jones' playing.
One of the standout tracks on the album is the ballad "Sometimes I'm Happy," which features a beautiful solo by Jones that perfectly captures the melancholic mood of the song. Another highlight is the title track "Business Meetin," which has a catchy, upbeat melody and showcases the band's tight ensemble playing.
