Tonight’s Friday night music thread is dedicated to the jazz great Clifford Brown. Tonight’s playlist is the album, “Overnight in Paris.”
Brown is one of the greatest trumpet players in jazz history. He died at the age of 25 in a car accident, but his influence on generations of trumpet players and musicians has been considerable. Clifford Brown was a virtuoso, an amazing and brilliant technician of the trumpet. His music is modern and completely timeless. This is a “best of” the songs that he recorded in Paris during memorable sessions that featured some of the greatest talents of all time: Gigi Gryce, Quincy Jones, Art Farmer, Jimmy Cleveland. The sound on this program has been digitally re-mastered to achieve what is perhaps the finest sound quality ever.
