Bobby Timmons: The Prestige Trio Sessions
by Jerry D'Souza
Some music never dies. It just sleeps for a while and then comes back in reissues. While some of it could well have stayed buried, this merging of two Timmons recordings is well deserving of attention. Timmons made some fine music, soul jazz if you will, the blues deeply shaded for sure. And even if he ...
Bobby Timmons: The Prestige Trio Sessions
by C. Michael Bailey
Late 2003 will see a changing of the guard at the famous Philadelphia Orchestra. Maestro Wolfgang Sawallisch will turn over his baton to his younger protégé Christoph Eschenbach, providing the orchestra only its seventh conductor in its century-plus history.

Bobby Timmons: Quartet and Orchestra
by C. Michael Bailey
The good, the bad, and the ugly. It would be so easy to dismiss this release as a collection of the painfully anemic efforts of a jazz giant trying to make the best of the late '60s jazz nadir using the vastly inferior popular music of the day as “the new standard". This seems to be ...
Dexter Gordon: LTD: Live At the Left Bank
by C. Michael Bailey
Long Tall Dexter in Baltimore, circa 1969.The most telling thing about this disc is a political one. Inside the liner notes, in small print, are the words. “Special Thanks to Joel Dorn." Indeed, special thanks. Dorn has based his new company, Label M, on about 300 performances he negotiated away from Baltimore's Left Bank ...

Bobby Timmons Trio: Down In the Bottom
by Derek Taylor
Unbeknownst to many, Bobby Timmons was much more than the heavy funk hitman his compositions and playing made him out to be during his lengthy tenure with Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. His memorable tunes such as “Moanin’” and ‘Dat Dere” were so infectiously soulful that many among the jazz listening public simply assumed finely crafted groove music ...
Bobby Timmons (Riverside: From the Bottom
by C. Andrew Hovan
Although he's largely remembered for his “soul-jazz" hits such as “Dat Dere" and “Moanin'," pianist Bobby Timmons was an accomplished enough musician that the range of his abilities far exceeded his commercial successes. As a result, over the course of a half dozen trio dates he led for Riverside in the early '60s Timmons put on ...
