Listener Reviews & Comments
This unlikely 1977 pairing turned out to be a bonanza for both men. Tate had not yet begun to lose his wind and Ibrahim was young and still open to the jazz influences he was searching for in America. Both men somehow conspired to bring out the best in the other. Ibrahim was so respectful of Tate that he entrusted his own opening tune, "Goduka Mfundi", to the captaincy of Tate and the rhythm section and sat out on piano. Tate never sounded better. Ibrahim's South African tonic was just the pick-me-up Tate needed as he entered the senior years of his career. And Ibrahim displays what a completely original keyboard voice he is on Duke's "In a Sentimental Mood" and the monumental, "Django". Thought you'd heard everything that could be done with "Django"? You haven't heard this. But perhaps the greatest revelation of this CD is bassist, Cecil McBee, who is liberally featured throughout and proves himself an absolute monster of the upright.If Hank O'Neal ever produced a better record I haven't heard it yet. This is jazz at its shining best. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
