BLUES
- by Frank-John Hadley
Doug
James & Sax Gordon (D&G 001; 49:16) jjj
Two saxophonists who
know the score in the jump-blues major leagues rip and roar through a
program of original songs, trading fours and taking compacted choruses
that affirm their great admiration for King Curtis, Gene Ammons and Big
Jay McNeely. James' baritone spouts bebop in spots and r&b dynamo
Gordon shows his reeds no mercy walking the imaginary bar. They visit an
old strip joint on "Steppin'." Duke Robillard, Mike DiBari and
Rick Russell, keeping their clothes on, play good guitar all over.
