Listener Reviews & Comments Reviewer: Harvey P. Getz from Okinawa, Japan When most modern jazz buffs browse the dusty record shop racks, they search, usually in vain, for previously unreleased tracks of their favorite trumpet players of the 1950's and 60's. Bop icons like Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Art Farmer, Chet Baker and Clifford Brown are the usual cast of valve pressers that head their dream list. Others like Red Rodney, Freddie Hubbard, Pete and Conte Condoli, Maynard Ferguson are also jewels to be possessed. On the other hand, I urge those of you who haven't listened to "The Jon Eardly Seven" to do so. In this musical masterpiece, Eardley's musical lyricism, ideas and technique are clearly evident in both his trumpet playing and original compositions. Incidently, much to the delight of the baritone saxophonist, it was Jon who took over Chet's trumpet chair when Baker exited Mulligan's pianoless ensemble. Because of the lack of musical space, Jon's bridled performances fall short of showcasing his incredible talent on the Mulligan California Concert albums, however, it is certainly worth listening to especially when Eardley managed to shine even when playing with the likes of Phil Woods, Bobby Brookmeyer, Zoot Sims, and Gerry Mulligan. Jon moved to Germany in the early 60's where he was kept quite busy performing in jazz clubs, concerts and played with the Belgium and Germany Radio Orchestras. Jon Eardley died in France on April 4, 1997. Harvey P. Getz Okinawa, Japan
