CD Reviews

"Hot Trumpets" is Very Warm Indeed
Michael B. Richman | Portland, Maine USA | 12/05/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

""The Hot Trumpets of Joe Newman and Harry 'Red' Allen" is another one of my Oldies/Collectables website finds. It features two albums, originally made for Swingville, coupled on one Prestige reissue -- Joe Newman's "Joe's Hap'nin's" from 1961 and Henry "Red" Allen's "Mr. Allen" from a year later. Both of these trumpeters made their mark in the swing era, so they are a natural pairing despite the fact that the recordings have no shared personnel. The May 9th Newman session features Tommy Flanagan on piano, Wendell Marshall on bass and Billy English on drums, while the June 5th Allen date has Lannie Scott on piano, Franklin Skeete on bass and Jerry Potter on drums. Rudy Van Gelder's engineering on both performances is impeccable as usual, and it is a joy to hear Red in particular in a clear, modern setting. As this disc is going out-of-print, get "Hot Trumpets" while it's still warm."
