Genre:Hard Bop
Description:The 1960 jazz classic finally reissued is immediately chosen by the editors of #1 jazz authority DownBeat Magazine as a January, 2007 Issue coveted Hot Box Review pick. This two-fisted hard bop recording featuring pianist Freddie Redd, trumpet great Howard McGhee, saxophonist Tina Brooks, Ossie Johnson on drums, and Milt Hinton on bass, performs the Freddie Redd jazz suite written for “The Connection”, the now legendary play by Jack Gelber, first performed in 1959 by the avant garde Living Theater of New York. The play-within-a-play, and subsequent film, depicts a group of addicts brought together in the pad of a dope dealer by a movie producer who is filming a documentary. As the production unfolds, the junkies drift about a loft waiting for Cowboy, their “Connection”, as four jazz musicians on stage, Freddie Redd among them, provide a chilling counterpoint to the happening. Album produced by Alan Lorber & Ernest Kelley.
