Blues and the Abstract Truth album for sale Product Description


Blues and the Abstract Truth album for sale by Oliver Nelson was released Oct 09, 2007 on the Verve label. The late Oliver Nelson had such a successful career as a composer of film and TV music ("Theme From the Six Million Dollar Man") and arranger that it often overshadowed his abilities as a jazz musician. Blues and the Abstract Truth songs In 1961, Nelson assembled a fantastic small ensemble, including Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, and Freddie Hubbard, for a session of six original compositions. Nelson was also an excellent, bluesy-toned saxophonist (heard here on tenor and alto) and his tunes cover a variety of moods, from the elegiac "Stolen Moments" to the wryly humorous, Aaron Copeland-like "Hoe-Down" to the rippling "Cascades." Dolphy's edgy, vocally inspired alto sound, the surging brassy tone of Hubbard's trumpet, and the swinging lyricism of Bill Evans make a potent combination, contributing to BLUES's status as a classic of post-bop jazz. Blues and the Abstract Truth CD music contains a single disc with 6 songs.   ...See Full Description

Beautiful album with great variety
I ordered this primarily for the cut "Stolen Moments," but love the entire recording. Oliver Nelson was a masterful composer and arranger, and this album shows his accomplished virtuosity very well.

On a higher plane.....
This has everything, from hard-driving bop to achingly beautiful melodies. Not really surprising when you look at that line-up.
