艺人介绍

by Ron WynnThe often overlooked brother of Phineas Newborn, guitarist Calvin Newborn has almost as much command of his instrument as his pianist sibling. Hes an excellent melodic interpreter, plays with great fluidity and blues sensibility, and can smoothly execute complex chord progressions or subtly accompany vocalists. Newborns problem has been a lack of a recorded legacy and his willingess to remain in Memphis, where hes played in local clubs and with various groups in the 70s,80s and 90s. Newborn worked and recorded with his brother from 1953 to 1958, and a year later joined Earl Hines. Newborn recorded with Hines in 1960, and toured and recorded with Lionel Hampton in both New York and Paris, as well as Jimmy Forrest, Wild Bill Davis, Al Grey and Freddie Roach in the early 60s. Newborn also did his own date for Rooster in the 70s. Unfortunately, virtually everything hes done is no longer available and hasnt been reissued on disc.
