HORACE SILVER – Silver ‘N Voices

Description

Be aware, in same cases pictures display here isn’t the same as the actually product. May be is a promo.

Horace Silver, a brilliant composer of funky melodies, was never that strong a lyricist despite his good intentions. For this set ( following the Silver ‘N Brass and Silver ‘N Wood sessions ), the pianist’s quintet ( featuring trumpeter Tom Harrell and tenorman Bob Berg ) is joined by six voices under the direction of Alan Copeland. The self-help lyrics get a bit cloying and the voices simply weigh down the music but there are some good solos along the way.
