Benny Carter 4, Ray Bryant, N.H.O. Pedersen, Jimmie Smith - Montreux '77

"..."Montreux '77" is one of the great unknown classics of jazz recordings. Recorded at the renowned jazz festival only a few years into his "comeback," this is an often astonishing performance with a sympathetic backing trio. Its hard to believe that Carter was already 70 when this was recorded, because he plays with the fire and intensity of a man half that age. He plays a little trumpet here as well, and if he sounds a bit weaker here, he still plays with great intelligence and beauty...
...This is a wonderful recording, highly recommended to both serious and casual jazz fans alike..."
