Herb Ellis - After Hour Session

Review by L Szilard

After Hour Session by Herb Ellis is an exceptional album that showcases the guitar virtuosity of one of the greatest jazz guitarists of all time. The album features Ellis and his quartet playing a series of jazz standards and original compositions in a relaxed and intimate setting, capturing the essence of a late-night jam session.

Ellis' guitar playing is nothing short of sublime, with his crisp and clean lines, impeccable timing, and effortless technique. He plays with a sense of ease and confidence that only comes from a lifetime of experience, and his solos are full of melodic invention and improvisational flair.

The quartet, consisting of piano, bass, and drums, provides a solid and swinging rhythm section that complements Ellis' playing perfectly. The arrangements are tasteful and understated, allowing the musicians to stretch out and explore the harmonic and rhythmic possibilities of each tune.

Standout tracks include the up-tempo "Ellis in Wonderland," the bluesy "Patti Cake," and the beautiful ballad "Detour Ahead." Throughout the album, Ellis and his quartet demonstrate a deep understanding and love for the jazz tradition, while also pushing the boundaries of the genre with their creative improvisations and innovative arrangements.

Oscar Peterson missed the recording date because of traffic into Hollywood.

Thanks for posting. This along with "Jazz Giants of '58" were two of the best studio jam sessions of that year......

Very good, of course. However, for a moment I thought the music was made by the original Soft Winds: Herb Ellis, John Frigo and Lou Carter. Did they actually record, do you know?

De film behoorde tot de onbenulligste van die tijd. Nimmer meer zoiets slechts gezien. Maar we stonden ervoor in de rij.... De tunes Les Tricheurs (Oscar Peterson, piano - Stan Getz, tenor sax - Roy Eldridge, trumpet - Ray Brown, bass - Gus Johnson, drums), Clo's blues (Coleman Hawkins, tenor sax), Phil's Tune (Roy Eldridge, trumpet), Mic's Jump (Dizzy Gilespie, trumpet) en het door Lionel Hampton gedrumde slot: Crazy Hamp met Milton Mezzrow, clarinet, André Persiany, piano en Buddy Banks, bass, waren onvergetelijk.
What is up w/ Dizzy's tone? is it just me?
