DAVE PIKE ‎– BOPHEAD CD

Description: DAVE PIKE ‎– BOPHEAD CD Bophead finds Dave Pike in the fine company of many of the musicianswho bring an impressive history to these recordings. The combined resumeof pianists Jane Getz and Milcho Leviev and drummer Albert Heath alone isastounding, including dates with Art Pepper, Charles Mingus, Dexter Gordon,Billy Cobham, John Coltrane, and Pharaoh Sanders, among many others.Together, the musicians draw heavily from the bop vocabulary on these 12performances. The opening of "Nita" finds Getz offering the sort of openchords that McCoy Tyner delivered behind Coltrane. The group then proceed to drift between this expansive territory and the more familiar bop strut. Whilebassist Richard Simon is clearly comfortable with the traditional walking patterns,he's particularly expressive during "Nita"'s freer moments, lending exceptional accompaniment to solos by Getz and guitarist Anthony Wilson. Pike is dazzling throughout, his solo on "Ghost" being particularly stunning. The excellent sound uality manages to capture both the harder edges of his more forceful attack aswell as the ringing tones typically associated with his instrument.
