Ray Bryant - Piano A'nt Idy Harper Bass Arthur Harper Bass Bill Lee Bass Mickey Roker Drums
This 1988 reissue brought back one of pianist Ray Bryant's favorite trio records. Supported by either Bill Lee or Arthur Harper on bass and drummer Mickey Roker, Bryant is typically soulful, swinging and reasonably explorative on nine songs (including a previously unreleased version of "Django") that are highlighted by "Con Alma," "Milestones," his popular "Cubano Chant" and "Autumn Leaves." ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
Ray Bryant
Active Decades: '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s Born: Dec 24, 1931 in Philadelphia, PA Genre: Jazz Styles: Bop, Soul-Jazz, Jazz Blues, Mainstream Jazz
Although he could always play bop, Ray Bryant's playing combines together older elements (including blues, boogie-woogie, gospel, and even stride) into a distinctive, soulful, and swinging style; no one plays "After Hours" quite like him. The younger brother of bassist Tommy Bryant and the uncle of Kevin and Robin Eubanks (his sister is their mother), Bryant started his career playing with Tiny Grimes in the late '40s. He became the house pianist at the Blue Note in Philadelphia in 1953, where he backed classic jazz greats (including Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and Lester Young) and made important contacts. He accompanied Carmen McRae (1956-1957), recorded with Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge at the 1957 Newport Jazz Festival (taking a brilliant solo on an exciting version of "I Can't Believe That You're in Love With Me"), and played with Jo Jones' trio (1958). Bryant settled in New York in 1959; played with Sonny Rollins, Charlie Shavers, and Curtis Fuller; and soon had his own trio. He had a few funky commercial hits (including "Little Susie" and "Cubano Chant") which kept him working for decades. Bryant recorded often throughout his career (most notably for Epic, Prestige, Columbia, Sue, Cadet, Atlantic, Pablo, and Emarcy), and even his dates on electric piano in the '70s are generally rewarding. However, Ray Bryant is heard at his best when playing the blues on unaccompanied acoustic piano. --- Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
