from Oannes *

Το μικρό μας αφιέρωμα στην τεράστια καριέρα του Quincy Jones – με έμφαση στην jazz και την κινηματογραφική πλευρά του καλλιτέχνη – συνεχίζεται με δυο δικές του συνθέσεις απ΄το άλμπουμ The Quintessence, κυκλοφορημένο το 1962 από την Impulse!. Tο άλτο του Phil Woods και η τρομπέτα του Freddie Hubbard ξεχωρίζουν στο ομώνυμο κομμάτι (03:21) και το ‘Hard Socks Dance’ (00:00) αντίστοιχα.

✻

Our little tribute to Quincy Jones’ huge career – with emphasis on the artist’s jazz and cinematic side – continues with two of his own compositions, from the album The Quintessence, released on Impulse! in 1962. Phil Woods’ alto and Freddie Hubbard’s trumpet stand out on the title track (03:21) and ‘Hard Socks Dance’ (00:00) respectively.
