about
Intakt CD 198
Ulrich Gumpert and Günter Baby Sommer with their second duo-release on Intakt Records: "La Paloma" strikes a wide arco: blues, boogie-woogie, hard bop, arrangements of German folk songs, free jazz – it's all there. Günter Sommer's "drum fills" show clearly why he got his nickname from Louis Armstrong's drummer Baby Dodds, while a piece like "Preußische Elegie" ("Prussian Elegy", the title itself, a contradiction) demonstrates what a great composer Ulrich Gumpert actually is. The CD was recorded in the MPS-Studio in Villingen in the Black Forest, where they have a mighty "Bösendorfer Imperial". Oscar Peterson, Red Garland, Hampton Hawes and Roland Hanna have recorded on it – which makes it a sacred instrument. The album ends with "La Paloma". This longing melody is celebrated in a serious and distinguished manner, with great authority, confident and detached. And furnished with a small distancing effect added: two beats rest before each verse almost seems like an ironic twinkle in the eye.

I Plan To Stay A Believer: The Inside Songs Of Curtis Mayfield
by William Parkersupported by 6 fans who also own “La Paloma”
Hard to pick the best track as this is an absolutely magnificent release. Funkiest Jazz Versions of Curtis Mayfield ever and all live too. Features the legendary Leena Conquest on vocals. Which begs the question; Why are there not more recordings by this superb vocalist? Just listen to "If There's A Hell Down Below" it's intense!!
