-Descripcion Original:

This multi-reedist has chosen from an array of horns to play various saxophone on this, his romantic and inspired trinute to Django Reinhardt. Tracks include Passionette, Oriental Shuffle, Silly Old Moon and more. [Note: This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand] At first glance, jazz guitarist might seem an unlikely inspiration for a modern jazz saxophonist. But in referencing the fiery gypsy virtuoso (while employing dual acoustic guitarists), James Carter has fashioned his most compelling, fully formed recital as a leader. While his galloping soprano on the title tune enhances Carters reputation as fiery technical craftsman (all the more joyous for the torrid exchanges with his cousin, violinist ), Chasin the Gypsy showcases his gifts as a torch player, while deepening his connections to the rich timbres, macho articulations, and swinging romanticism of the pre-bebop saxophone tradition. In the process, he finds provocative new applications for forgotten instruments of the 1920s. On Oriental Shuffle, he elicits a ripe, bulbous tonality from the F Mezzo--like a soprano sax on steroids--carefully layering taut melodic nuggets until busting out in a Djangoish reverie. Even more satisfying is his portrayal of the classic chestnut Ill Never Be the Same, in which James matches Reginas soaring lyricism by transforming the ungainly bass saxophone from an ugly duckling into a lithesome swan (as he also does on Djangos classic Nuages, with Charlie Giordanos accordion providing authentic period counterpoint). Fans of Carters timeless tenor saxophone tone wont be disappointed by the tender inflections marking his intimate performance of Djangos Castle and an original for his freshly minted baby daughter, Imaris Lullaby. This is a big step up in class for the young heavyweight. --Chip Stern Review Since his 1993 debut, reedsman James Carter has applied boundless confidence and monster chops to original compositions and old favorites, to all-but-forgotten classics, and to evolving sub-genres like organ-combo and quiet storm. Now Carter immerses himself in the War Years swing of guitarist Django Reinhardt. Carter might easily be taken for two - or a half-dozen - players. His low-slung first entrance on Chasin the Gypsy, on Reinhardts classic Nuages (Clouds), is that of a lounge lizard hauling forth a bass saxophone, hoisting it high, then higher - like Coleman Hawkins tossing an Apache dance partner. Carters virtuosity is decked in Cyro Baptistas castinets, small chimes, cymbals, and ships bell, lifted with characteristic modest grace by drummer Joey Baron, sustained on squeezebox by Charlie Giordano, and offset by well-placed bursts of Jay Berliners steel-stringed and Romero Lumbambos nylon-stringed guitars. The ensemble evokes noir soundscapes: public and private salons alive with intimations of assignations; night in the harbor, foggy streets, waterfront bars, and cafes; campfire-lit wagons under trees on the outskirts of town. Some of the arrangements and solos allude to present-day tropes: Giordano breaks into zydeco, and the intro to the Artillerie Lourde (Heavy Artillery) could just as easily open a Motown version of Fever. But mostly Carter pitches his interpretations across time. His superfast title track would have suited Benny Goodman; Carter carves out its quick, tight curlicues with his knife-like soprano. On Oriental Shuffle, he blows f mezzo saxophone with judicious use of vibrato, a la Sidney Bechet. On Artillery, a shaft of light pierces the darkness of Carters tough tone and melodic swagger. Its a suspenseful yet humorous pizzicato solo from his formidable cousin, violinist Regina Carter. With her sassy bow work and drive on Chasin, her wit trading fours with and partnering James on the chase choruses of Avalon, Regina thickens the plot. Like the female lead who shows up to complicate
