New album / UNIVERSAL JAZZ
The Spanish repertoire of Nat King Cole revisited.
Few musicians in jazz history have proven more vigorously productive and resourceful than David Murray. With this album, we hear the fruit of one of his most improbable and effective projects: an interpretation of two albums that Nat King Cole recorded in Spanish in 1958 and 1962, performing melodies—famous in Latin America, but largely unknown in the United States—from Cuba, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Rio de Janeiro, and Buenos Aires.
The result is one of Murray’s most purely pleasurable albums. It demonstrates a tremendous leap in his approach to a world of music that has long fascinated him. The arrangements are imaginative, compelling, and wily, especially in the integration between winds and stings. The band is as tight as a fist. And there is a stunning feature for David Murray the improviser, in “No me platiques” —a sensational tour de force and a high spot in his massive discography.
