Perhaps no album in the history of jazz comes from left-field more than Freddie Hubbard's Sing Me a Song of Songmy. The album is not anything like you would expect from a trumpeter who laid his roots in the sounds of Lee Morgan and Clifford Brown. And, now that I've got your attention you're probably saying how is Freddie Hubbard really that avant garde. Well, once you start listening to"Part I," everything you that you knew about Freddie Hubbard gets thrown out the proverbially window. Tape manipulations, reciters, a string orchestra and a chorus immediately take you on a topical and political journey of the early 1970's. "Part II" continues Hubbard's journey through the either and gives glimpses of the hard bop that Hubbard was known for, but it ultimately leaves you wide-eyed and asking yourself did Freddie Hubbard really make this record with Kenny Barron on piano, Junior Cook on tenor saxophone, Art Booth on bass and Louis Hayes on drums?
I am going to post a few short tracks from this album, just to let you in... the rest is up to you. Here is "What A Good Time For Kent State", "Black Soldier", and "This is Combat I Know" on a continuous track.
enjoy
