Golson’s debut as a leader was released in 1959, two years after his second and third solo albums were released. The five tracks feature some fine solos from Golson and trumpeter Art Farmer, who would become a frequent collaborator of his over the following decades. For students of his saxophone style, ‘Something In B flat’ is an opportunity to hea...
This album is a masterpiece and is often mentioned alongside other seminal jazz albumsthat were released in 1959, including Miles Davis’ ‘Kind Of Blue’. Benny Golson was central to the proceedings, contributing four of the five originals. ‘Are You Real’, co-written with trumpeter Lee Morgan, mixes interplay between the two horns with harmonised lin...
Recorded a month after ‘Moanin” and featuring a memorable cover, Golson’s third solo outing was to be the first of many with trombonist Curtis Fuller. We hear more of Benny Golson in this two-horn front line as he takes the melody and solos more on tunes such as ‘Are You Real’, while with trumpet he would usually play a harmony part. ‘Strut Time’ i...
Benny Golson was a Messenger for less than a year but he did visit Paris with the band in late 1958, shortly after recording ‘Moanin’. This album, recorded at L’Olympia, which still stands today, presents the tracks of the studio album but with the added energy, interplay and extended solos that we would expect from a live recording. The programme ...
Recorded a mere five days after ‘The Other Side’, this date matches trumpeter Lee Morgan with pianist Ray Bryant, Percy Heath on bass and Philly Joe Jones. It is particularly interesting for its version of ‘Stablemates’. Named after a Boston jazz club, this Golson composition was recorded in 1955 by Miles Davis and had already begun to have a life ...
Benny Golson composed all the tunes for trumpeter Lee Morgan’s third album, which he recorded when he was just 19. Highlights include the Middle East-inspired ‘Hasaan’s Dream’, the fast-swinging ‘Domingo’ and ‘I Remember Clifford’; a ballad that Golson composed as a tribute to the trumpeter Clifford Brown. This was first recorded by Donald Byrd ear...
This modestly-titled recording is bookended by two Benny Golson originals, ‘Blues After Dark’ and ‘Just By Myself’. It’s good to hear the trumpet virtuoso soloing on these tunes, which serve to remind us of Golson’s ability to write catchy themes that musicians enjoyed playing. Alto saxophonist and composer Gigi Gryce is also a key man on this reco...
The Jazztet was a sextet co-led by Benny Golson with trumpeter Art Farmer and Curtis Fuller. On the first of 12 recordings, the band included Art’s brother Addison Farmer on bass, drummer Lex Humphries and a young McCoy Tyner on piano. Among the tracks are some spirited readings of ‘I Remember Clifford’ and ‘Blues March’. A notable success was ‘Kil...
Benny Golson recorded a few ‘concept’ albums in his career which now seem quite bizarre. ‘Pop + Jazz = Swing’ from 1962 was an experiment with the stereo format, inviting the listener to switch tune between a jazz band and a string section on the left and right channels. Another of his concept albums, ‘Tune In, Turn On’ is a set of easy listening m...
Benny Golson abandoned the saxophonealtogether in the late 1960s to concentrate on composing for film, TV and commercials in the lucrative Los Angeles studio scene. Invitations to record as a sideman brought him back to jazz and he reformed the Jazztet with Art Farmer in the 1980s. To coincide with the release of the movie ‘The Terminal’, in which ...

Nov 5, 2006 · Amazon.com. These 1993 live recordings of senior scat singer and lyricist Jon Hendricks are certainly an all-star affair, with contributions from tenor saxophonist Benny Golson, trombonist Al Grey, and Wynton Marsalis, who joins in scatting as well as playing trumpet. But it's also a family affair, with first Michele and then Judith and Aria ...
