Greatest Performances Music Review

Average Rating: (2 out of 5 stars) 2 stars

2 stars Dumb!
These are all great Grover cuts, but why even make a retrospective with so few tracks? It's a dumb idea especially with so many good G.W. collections around.

Last Dragon CD (1985) Remastered

Greatest Performances

$6.65

Digitally remastered by Suha Gur (Universal Mastering Studios East, Edison, New Jersey).
Personnel: Vanity (vocals).
East met West for 1985's action-packed The Last Dragon (or Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon, depending on how you want to look at it), a vehicle for Gordy's Motown label that employed Vanity in a lead role as popular veejay Laura Charles, the object of affection for Taimak's talented martial arts hero character Leroy (or "Bruce Leroy," as he was respectfully referred to). By no means is the movie a classic, and neither is the Motown-heavy soundtrack. You'd be missing the point if you thought of them in those terms. The movie was marketed at kids, and it provides ...

Bill Evans, with bassist Eddie Gomez and his drummer of the period Jack DeJohnette (just prior to him joining Miles Davis), is in excellent form on this well-rounded CD reissue. Evans performs two of his originals (including "One for Helen" which was dedicated to his longtime manager Helen Keane), Denny Zeitlin's "Quiet Now," Earl Zindars' "Mother of Earl" and a few of his favorite standards, tunes that are generally ballads and harmonically rich. The interplay between Evans and Gomez was growing month-by-month (the bassist had been with him for almost two years at this point) and is the main reason to acquire this disc although DeJohnette does offer some stimulating support. ~ Scott Yanow
