Jazz
with Richard Wyands, Ron McClure, Tony Reedus
James Spaulding, a veteran of the musical organizations of Freddie Hubbard, McCoy Tyner, David Murray and the Sun Ra Arkestra, leads an all-star session from Rudy Van Gelder's place on his newest HighNote record. With John Hicks on piano, Don Sickler on trumpet/flugel and Ray Drummond and Kenny Washington sitting in on bass and drums, respectively, James lends color and an exotic timbre by featuring not only his alto sax and flute, but the seldom-seen bass flute as well. Tunes by Hank Mobley, Grant Green, Dexter Gordon, Kenny Dorham and others bring out the imaginative best from the players. A record for those with a fondness for truly musical jazz, full of unique sounds and ideas.
James Spaulding
Active Decades: '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s
Born: Jul 30, 1937 in Indianapolis, IN
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Hard Bop, Post-Bop
A superior alto saxophonist and flutist who can shift from bop and hard bop to very adventurous flights, James Spaulding gained his greatest recognition while a member of Freddie Hubbard's quintet in the mid-'60s. He studied at the Chicago Cosmopolitan School of Music and then gigged and recorded regularly with Sun Ra during 1957-1961. During the 1960s, Spaulding (who worked with Max Roach and Randy Weston) was in demand not only by Hubbard, but for Blue Note recordings by Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter, Stanley Turrentine, and Larry Young, among others. He had stints during the next couple of decades with a wide variety of top artists, including Charles Tolliver, Bobby Hutcherson, David Murray, and (for a brief period) the World Saxophone Quartet, but is still vastly underrated. James Spaulding has recorded as a leader for Storyville (a Duke Ellington tribute set in 1976) and several dates for Muse (1988-1993).
