這張是相當具收藏價值的唱片,也是未見CD版本的珍貴錄音:
TOCJ-50114 Eddie Costa:Memorial Concert
買的時候,不知道這張這樣精彩,還以為是 Eddie Costa 和 Coleman Hawkins、Clark Terry 等人合作的演出,原來是張向 Eddie Costa 致敬的唱片。
Eddie Costa 是 1962.7.28在紐約的快速道路因車禍死亡,享年31歲,這張唱片是 1962.10.9 的錄音。
唱片錄音資料(CD版本為4、5首對調):
Colpix CP 450 Recorded October 9th 1962, Village Gate, N.Y.C.
Clark Terry Quartet / Quintet
Clark Terry tp; Dick Hyman, p; Art Davis, b; Osie Johnson, d.
1. Introduction 1:37
2. The simple waltz 7:12 (Add Willie Dennis, tb)
3. Things ain't what they used to be 11:24
Coleman Hawkins Sextet
Marky Markowitz, tp; Urbie Green, tb; Coleman Hawkins, ts; Sonny Clark, p; Chuck Israels, b; Roy Haynes, d.
4. Just you, just me 15:43 (Markowitz and Green out)
5. I'm confessin' 6:05
以往我對 Eddie Costa 的唱片沒有太多的印象,雖然在他網站提到他的演奏風格:His percussive style and intense pounding left hand technique has rarely been duplicated even to this day. Known to some as "Eddie the Bear," he attacked the piano like a ferocious beast. It was said that he drove the beat enough on the piano that drums were an unnecessary commodity.



Verve 的 VME 系列有發行此張。

環球日本版發行過。

這幾天看來要再拿他的唱片來聽聽看,不過本張Memorial Concert 唱片,相當精彩,第一部分有著Clark Terry、Dick Hyman 等諸位老樂手的演出、有著相當平順的演出,不過比較精彩的是,第二部分的 Coleman Hawkins 的薩克斯風響起,想不到樂器質感還相當不錯,錄音還是具有相當的水準,我總覺得 Coleman Hawkins 在他人專輯的插花演出,比較 swing 點,反而在自己的專輯的表現,卻比較中規中矩,除此之外,第二部分及第4-5軌,還可以聽到難得聽到的 Sonny Clark 鋼琴演奏,不過第4軌結尾似乎突然斷掉,有點奇怪!。
這張唱片聽起來雖然有些平淡,樂手的表現更未有太過突出的個人表現,展現出相當平和的協調,展現出相當和諧的氣氛,實在是 EMI 這第三批的唱片,不容錯過的唱片之一。
以他為名的唱片不多:
At Newport
Rolf Kuhn、Dick Johnson、Mat Mathews、Don Elliott
Eddie Costa & Vinnie Burke Trio
