GROVER WASHINGTON | Inner City Blues

 

ARTISTS

Grover Washington

 

 

TRACK LISTING

Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)
Georgia On My Mind
Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)
Ain't No Sunshine
Until It's Time For You To Go
I Loves You Porgy

This 1971 date was Washington's first as a leader, after playing and recording with the small organ combos of Charles Earland and Johnny "Hammond" Smith. It's unheard-of for a jazz musician to make his debut complete with strings, horns, and vocal group, but Washington apparently got the opportunity when the backing tracks were in place for a Hank Crawford album and Crawford was out of the country. Stranger still, Washington is usually playing alto here rather than his customary soprano or tenor. It was an instrument he hadn't played in years, and the result of his horn switching is a compellingly original sound that's almost sopranolike. Despite the circumstances, Washington brings a lot of himself to this music, making personal statements of two contemporary Marvin Gaye songs, "Inner City Blues" and "Mercy, Mercy Me," and the standards "Georgia on My Mind" and "I Loves You, Porgy." He also puts together an effective combination of Bill Withers's "Ain't No Sunshine" and J.J. Johnson's "Theme from Man and Boy." Whether it's the tight combo of "Inner City Blues" or the full-blown orchestra with strings and backing vocals, this is soul jazz of the first rank. --Adam Rains

Until the recording of this album, Astrud Gilberto had been almost exclusively associated with the great Stan Getz.  She not only came to national attention as vocalist with Stan Getz on Ipanema, she spent the later part of 1964 playing night clubs and concerts with the Getz Quartet.  With this album she proved her own individuality with the help of the brilliant arranger/conducter Marty Paich and her fellow country Antonio Carlos Jobim.

Look to the Rainbow was Astrud Gilberto's third album for Verve.  Gil Evans' superb arrangements proved to be the perfect setting for Astrud and this remains one of her most memorable recordings.

Due to the short length of the original Look to the Rainbow album, we have added six songs from her fourth album for Verve called A Certain Smile, a Certain Sadness.  This album was a collaboration with Brazilian organist Walter Wanderley, best known for his international instrumental hit Summer Samba.  Astrud presents a vocal version of this same song here.
