Torrent description


Johnny Griffin - White Gardenia (APE+CUE)

Please keep seeding until 3:1 ratio.

Tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin pays tribute to Billie Holiday, who had died exactly two years earlier, on this ballad-oriented set, which has been reissued on CD. Griffin is joined by a brass section (either five or seven pieces), plus a rhythm section and strings (the latter dominated by cellos), for his warm interpretations of nine songs associated with Billie Holiday, plus his original "White Gardenia." The arrangements, provided by Melba Liston and Norman Simmons, are tasteful, and the lyrical music is well-performed, if not overly memorable. Worth checking out.

Personnel includes: Johnny Griffin (tenor saxophone); Clark Terry (trumpet, flugelhorn); Ernie Royal, Nat Adderley (trumpet); Ray Alonge (French horn); Jimmy Cleveland, Urbie Green, Paul Faulice (trombone); Barry Harris, Jimmy Jones (piano); Barry Galbraith (guitar); Ron Carter (bass); Ben Riley (drums).
