Sonny Clark - Cool Struttin' - Japan UHQCD Limited Edition

Credits:

Sonny Clark, Art Farmer, Jackie Mclean, Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones

Description:

This is a masterpiece by Sonny Clark, who has many fans in Japan for his melancholy tone. Just listening to the enchanting first few seconds of the song is enough to make your heart flutter. The slow beat is delightful, evoking the pretentious walking of the woman in the jacket, who has beautiful legs. In the improvised parts, the two top players, Art Farmer and Jackie McLean, relay solos that make the most of their individuality. Clark also reciprocates with tenacious, bluesy phrases.
