Description:
Moodsville features tenor saxophonist Bennie Wallace leading a classic quartet of piano, bass, and drums. Although this is a multi-miked studio recording, Joe Harley and recording engineer Joe Marciano have done a credible job of creating a plausible soundstage. The recording has good dynamics and presence, and captures Wallace's big tenor sax tone. Recorded direct to 2-track at Systems 2 in New York in May the session features some of the hottest jazz musicians currently working in the US : Mulgrew Miller (piano), Peter Washington (bass) and Lewis Nash (drums).
The performances include "Love For Sale", "I Concentrate On You", "A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing", "When A Woman Loves A Man", "April In Paris", "Milestones" and "Con Alma".
The sound and feel of the album is very close to that of the great Moodsville and Prestige recordings of the '50s and '60s featuring artists like Gene Ammons. This album is a tribute to those great recordings hence the title Moodsville. There are stunning versions of "April In Paris," "A Flower Is A Lovesome Thing" and "When A Woman Loves A Man". This is the kind of beautiful, smoky, full bodied and ballad-filled tenor sax album that audiophiles just love!
