Arnett Cobb Party Time + More Party Time + Movin' Right Along

Description: Personnel: Arnett Cobb (ts), Ray Bryant, Tommy Flanagan, Bobby Timmons (p), Wendell Marshall, Sam Jones (b), Art Taylor (d), Ray Barretto, Danny Barrajanos, Buck Clark (conga) Of all the tenor saxophonists who have come roaring out of Lionel Hamptons band, Texas tenor Arnett Cobb always seemed the most likely to allow his essentially rich and swinging style to stand on its own merits. He demonstrated it in these relaxed, unpretentious sessions amid congenial, inventive company, including some of the most accomplished and soulful pianists around, with Ray Bryant, Tommy Flanagan, and Bobby Timmons providing some lean and lithely moving solos on these implacably swinging dates. The setting allowed one of the most assertive of the roistering tenorists to work his way into piece after piece, developing gracefully structured lines in his rough, tweedy tone. Forceful, virile and uncomplicated, an assertive reflection of its time and place, the music retains the capacity to reach directly into the emotions, unhindered by the passage of time.
