Bobby Hutcherson: oblique? Pretty straight-ahead Jazz

Bobby Hutcherson: oblique? Pretty straight-ahead Jazz

Title: Oblique

Label: Blue Note ST-31963, Tone Poet Series 

Recorded: July 21, 1967, Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, USA

First released in January 1979

Blue Note Tone Poet reissue in 2020

 

Musicians: Bobby Hutcherson (vibes), Herbie Hancock (Piano), Albert Stinson (Bass), Joe Chambers (Drums). 

 

A very good session. Spirited accounts of originals and standards. Very enjoyable, but not essential Hutcherson. If new to Hutcherson, I recommend starting with The Kicker and Happenings.
