Roy Hargrove: Nothing Serious CD Track Listing
Roy Hargrove
Nothing Serious (2006)
Roy Hargrove: Dwayne Burno (double bass). Personnel: Roy Hargrove (trumpet, flugelhorn); Justin Robinson (flute, alto saxophone); Slide Hampton (trombone); Ronnie Matthews (piano); Willie Jones III (drums). Recording information: Capitol Studios, Los Angeles, California. As one of the "young lions" who emerged on the jazz scene in the late 1980s, trumpeter Roy Hargrove belongs to the jazz camp that harks back to the classic hard bop put out on Blue Note and Verve in the 1950s and early '60s. NOTHING SERIOUS, which was released by Verve in 2006, finds Hargrove working solidly in this mode and adding his own distinctive voice to the legacy. Hargrove's quintet consists of top-tier musicians who push all the right buttons at every turn. It's hard to criticize the musicians for sticking to the history books when they're making music this fine (the Afro-Cuban-flavored title cut, and the haunting "Salima's Dance" are just two of the album's many highlights). Excellent songwriting and guest spots from trombone legend Slide Hampton round out the package. Solid from beginning to end, NOTHING SERIOUS proves that classic hard bop is still alive and kicking
This jazz cd contains 8 tracks and runs 45min 43sec.
