"Great Jazz Standards" was recorded when Evans was red-hot from two successes with Miles Davis, "Miles Ahead" and "Porgy And Bess". Evans' signature brass choir is in place - creatively voiced, spaciously arranged, a supple, multi-coloured, sonically surprising counterpoint to a succession of superb soloists. The added bonus, for Evans' projects, is the foregrounding of saxophone and clarinet soloists Steve Lacy and Budd Johnson. Lacy and the original swing-to-bop missing link, Johnson, are the ones who will make the hair on your neck curl. Lacy's solos on Monk's "Straight No Chaser" and John Lewis' "Django" must be some of the finest pre-free improvisations he recorded, already heading from quirky to out-there. Johnson's clarinet solo on Don Redman's spooky, swing-meets-whole tone classic, "Chant Of The Weed", and slow-burning, stirring tenor solo on Evans' "La Nevada" are some of the finest the all-but-forgotten genius ever recorded. Trumpeter Johnny Coles, has the inevitable misfortune of being compared to Miles Davis and being found to be ... different. Sunny, open and extroverted, he may not be a stylist of Davis' proportions, but he's an enjoyable alternative foil for Evans' arrangements. A magnificent but neglected album, and still coming up fresh as daisies. "Great Jazz Standards" wurde aufgenommen, als der Name Gil Evans nach zwei Erfolgen mit Miles Davis, "Miles Ahead" und "Porgy And Bess", in aller Munde war. Evans typischer Blechchor ist dabei - in kreativer Besetzung, üppig arrangiert, ein geschmeidiger, vielfarbiger, vom Klang her überraschender Kontrapunkt zu der Abfolge großartiger Solisten. Der zusätzliche Bonus für Evans Projekte ist, dass die Saxophon- und Klarinette-Solisten Steve Lacy und Budd Johnson im Vordergrund stehen. Lacy und das ursprünglich fehlende Glied in der Swing-to-Bop-Kette, Budd Johnson, sind diejenigen, bei denen sich ein Kribbeln einstellt. Lacys Solos in Monks "Straight No Chaser" und John Lewis' in "Django" müssen mit die feinsten von ihm aufgenommenen Prä-Free Jazz Improvisationen sein, die bereits von schräg bis ins Jenseits reichen. Johnsons Klarinetten-Solo von Don Redmans geisterhaftem, Swing-trifft-Klassik "Chant Of The Weed" und verhaltenem, anrührendem Tenorsolo von Evans "La Nevada" sind einige der besten, die das fast vergessene Genie je aufgenommen hat. Trompeter Johnny Coles hat das unvermeidliche Pech, mit Miles Davis verglichen zu werden und man findet ihn ... anders. Sonnig, offen und extrovertiert, mag er kein Meister des Stils von Davis' Größe sein, aber er ist eine erfreuliche Kontrastfigur zu Evans Arrangements. Ein prachtvolles, aber vernachlässigtes Album, nach wie vor taufrisch. Pure Pleasure Audiophile Jazz Vinyl Record, LP 33rpm, Mono, Analogue Limited Edition Audiophile Remastering. Released 2009 In UK.
