Jazz / Post Bop / Afro-Cuban Jazz / Trumpet
Over the last few years, just as jazz fans had thought that CD collections of their favorite iconic jazz musicians were “complete” (since the legendary artists had been deceased for decades), we have been treated to welcome releases from European sources of previously unreleased material.
The latest bonanza comes from CAP (Consolidated Artists Productions), of never before heard recordings of Dizzy Gillespie’s Quintet from a two week engagement in August, 1973, at Ronnie Scott’s club in London. (CAP is owned by the quintet’s pianist, Mike Longo.)
The quintet’s two week gig was a welcome relief for frazzled Londoners, who were experiencing attacks from the Irish Republican Army’s terror campaign due to “the troubles” in Northern Ireland. Just prior to Gillespie’s arrival, car bombs had caused a death and 180 injuries. Jazz was a welcome antidote, and who better than the irrepressible Dizzy to provide some musical and comic relief. Mention is made of the fact that the group had to go through police lines to reach the club.

What is so striking in listening to these four discs is the energy and enthusiasm of the band. Dizzy provides both funny comments in his song introductions as well as serious commentary (as on “The Truth”). The band members are in full sync with their leader, and had already been time tested after being on the road. Mickey Roker is a monster on the drum kit, especially with his African-influenced percussive solos. Pianist Mike Longo is both sensitive and funky on his contributions (and compositions), especially on gospel and blues tracks (i.e. “Sunshine”, “The Truth”, and “Matrix”). Bassist Earl May is a rock solid timekeeper and his “conversations” with Dizzy are endearing. Guitarist Al Gafa (who wrote “Beyond a Moonbeam”), leads the way on “The Crossing,” which commemorates the quintet’s voyage to Europe on the SS France. Al also has a hot solo on Dizzy’s “Ole for the French Gypsies.”
Gillespie’s prowess for samba and bossa nova are on full display throughout the Ronnie Scott gig as evidenced by “No More Blues”, “Black Orpheus”, and “Mike’s Samba” (written by Longo). Dizzy’s love of scatting is a highlight of “Oop-Pop-A-Da” as is Earl May’s walking bass. Gillespie is also well-known for his affection for Afro-Cuban rhythms that go back to his time with Chano Pozo. On “Kush” he uses Swahili chanting on exchanges with the band and the appreciative London audience.
The fidelity on these 40 year recordings is amazing and kudos go to Peter Bould, the sound engineer at the night club. Fans of Dizzy Gillespie will want these four discs of unreleased performances that feature this jazz legend still in his prime. They are available individually for purchase.
