Review 1 Paul Chambers was the most in-demand bassist in jazz within a year after arriving in New York City. He was signed to Blue Note, in Miles Davis's quintet, and making countless sessions for a who's who of modern jazz.
Bass on Top was his third album and remains a crowning achievement. Chambers assembled a quartet with Kenny Burrell, Hank Jones, and Art Taylor, and built arrangements which feature his instrument prominently on melodies and solos. His bowed work is a thing of beauty. this Rudy Van Gelder remaster includes a seventh track from the session that was not on the original album.
Recorded on July 14, 1957 at the Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey. | Players Kenny Burrell - Guitar Hank Jones - Piano Paul Chambers - Bass Art Taylor - Drums | Tracks Yesterday 5:49 You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To 7:13 chasin' the Bird 6:15 Dear Old Stockhom 6:41 The Theme 6:11 Confessin' 4:11 Chamber Mates 5:02 * |
