Recorded on June 1990 at Cannes' PaIais des Festivals, the Birdmen & Birdsongs concert was intended as a tribute to the late great CharIie "Bird" Parker, one of the most infIuentiaI musicians in the past century. The present video-the second in a series of two-showcases the second part of the concert, featuring the John Hendricks group and the Phil Woods quartet.
A first-rate singer and lyricist, the Iegendary John Hendricks appeared fronting a vocaI group with rhythm section and performing splendid versions of tunes associated with Parker. Subjected to the irrepressibIe Hendricks treatment, numbers such as "My Old FIame" or Neal Hefti's "Repetition" sounded as fresh as the first time Bird performed them way back decades ago. The last part of this unique musical tribute featured the quartet headed by aItos PhiI Woods, one of the most respected jazzmen around-and the man who inherited Parker's actuaI saxophone! A first-class instrumentaIist, Woods Ied his men-pianist HaI Galper, bassist Steve Gilmore and drummer BiII Goodwin-through a healthy ration of Bop originaIs or tunes associated with the Bop era: "BiIIie's Bounce," "Now ls the Time,' "Steeplechase," "Parker's Mood"...CeIebrating Birdmen Birdsongs! |
