Kenny DorhamĀ added stellar entries to the catalogs of Blue Note, Riverside, and New Jazz throughout the 1950s as he solidified his reputation as a leading trumpeter and composer on the jazz scene. He began 1961 in the studio for Blue Note recording his excellent albumĀ Whistle StopĀ and later that year cut his first date for Pacific Jazz,Ā Inta Somethinā, a spirited live recording that captured Dorham leading a quintet with alto saxophonistĀ Jackie McLean, pianistĀ Walter Bishop Jr., bassistĀ Leroy Vinnegar, and drummerĀ Art TaylorĀ at The Jazz Workshop in San Francisco. The band is firing on all cylinders throughout this set of four standards bookended by the Dorham originals āUsā and āSan Francisco Beat.ā A buoyant version of āIt Could Happen To Youā is performed quartet as a Dorham showcase, while the trumpeter lays out on āLetās Face The Music And Danceā and āLover Manā to give the spotlight to McLean.
Blue Note Tone Poet Series
The Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series was born out of Blue Note President Don Wasā admiration for the exceptional audiophile Blue Note LP reissues presented by Music Matters.
