AVID Jazz continues with its Four Classic Albums series with a re-mastered 2CD release from Jon Hendricks (2 x solo albums) and Lambert Hendricks & Ross complete with original artwork, liner notes and personnel details Jon Hendricks - 'A Good Git Together'; 'Fast Livin' Blues'' and Lambert, Hendricks & Ross - 'High Flying' and 'Sing Ellington' Following the incredible success of our first and recently released Lambert, Hendricks & Ross: Four Classic Album set (AMSC1320) and our classic best seller Annie Ross: Four Classic Albums (AMSC1015), we thought we would round off our journey with another two classics by the titanic trio and for good measure offer up a taste of the vocalese master Jon Hendricks out on his own on two extraordinary albums. Released in 1959, A Good Git Together features Jon Hendricks during the time of his greatest success with LH&R, amongst such fine musicians as Wes Montgomery, Pony Poindexter and the brothers Cannonball & Nat Adderley. For Fast Livin' Blues, Hendricks is again joined by Pony Poindexter on tenor and soprano alongside Freddie Green on guitar and the legendary Joe Newman on trumpet as well as LH&R stalwarts the Ike Isaacs Trio. Our two final LH&R albums round off our vocalese journey through the music of one of the finest vocal groups in jazz history. Sing Ellington does what it says on the tin (to use that awful expression) but in fine, fine LH&R style, while High Flying features the final time Annie Ross would play on an album with her brothers in song. But what a fine way to out... singing sublimely! And of course the Ike Isaacs Trio are on hand to accompany them on both albums. Check out:- LH&R (AMSC1320) and Annie Ross (AMSC1015).

Un grand profèssionalisme.
C"est 2 bons cd bien interprèté. A mon avis, tout à fait personnel, c'est 2 cd à avoir chez soit. Je me demande comment, ces trois chanteurs, se sont réunis.

そして " Sermonette (サーモネット) " ! !
■ LAMBERT , HENDRICKS & ROSS ... Four Classic Albums < 1957~1959 >jazz の世界で group vocal での表現を志す者にとっては究極の " 聖典 " 。しかし、誰も近付くことすら難しい。同じ土俵で語れるのは、この unit の流れをくむLAMBERT , HENDRICKS and BABAN そして、短期間活動したVOCAL SUMMIT ( Lauren Newton , Urszula Dudziak , Jeanne Lee , Jay Clayton , BobbyMcFerrin ) ぐらいか。かって一通り聴いた筈なのに、こうして改めて聴くと以前には思わなかったところで「これ凄いじゃない !」という箇所があちこち出てきて驚かされる。センス(音楽性)、テクニック(技巧・即興能力)、協唱と反応、そしてお互いの相性・・・すべてが S クラス。今後こういうグループは恐らく出てこない。そして、ハイライトは " The Hottest New Group In Jazz " に収められた、キャノンボール・アダレイの曲に JON HENDRICKS が詩をつけた Sermonette (サーモネット)。ミディアムテンポで超絶技巧は全く使わずストレートに3人が歌い上げるだけのこの曲。その魅力にハマるとちょっと抜け出せない。

Unique jazz passion
These 2 CDs capture all the recordings of LHR with their unique vocal capacities. They send me into reveries and memories of my youth and nurture me by their innovation and love of jazz.
