专辑介绍

by Scott Yanow

Jack Costanzo is one of the most important pioneers in popularizing Afro-Cuban jazz, playing bongos with Stan Kenton in 1947 on many influential recordings and being a member of the highly visible Nat King Cole Trio from 1949-53. Costanzo, who also doubles on conga, recorded some of his own sessions in the 1950s, guested on many dates, worked in the studios, and eventually settled in San Diego. For his first recording as a leader in many years, Costanzo shows that his playing is still very much in its prime and that his enthusiasm has never declined. Many of the 15 performances on this disc are quite exuberant, with wild horn riffing, crowded ensembles, and stirring rhythms. While the opening number is called &Descarga.com,& most of the other selections also sound very much like a spirited descarga (jam session) with the momentum never slowing down. Among the key soloists are trumpeters Gilbert Castellanos and Bill Caballero, Steve Feierabend on tenor, baritonist Bob Campbell, pianist Lynn Wilard and trombonist Bob Johnston, along with Costanzo himself. There is not a slow moment to be heard throughout this exciting set, which also includes short vocals, a coro, and producer Bobby Matos' occasional contributions to the percussion section. Get this one.
