..his teens during the 50's and twenties in the '60's, I grew up with the modern jazz era, and the stuff on these disks to me is insipid, uninspired, and second-rate jazz compared to work by Miles, Mingus, Gillespie, Mulligan, etc. Or even the farm teams of that era.Moreover, it isn't just comparing the past. It's comparing quality. Just two years ago, I heard Wynton with three other young musicians in a small nightclub in Northampton, MA and even as a new and admittedly experimental group, they put anybody on these disks to shame with their originality, spontenaity, and sheer musicianship. Almost all the compositions were new; few were standards. And yet they delivered quality jazz at the level of those 50's legends.
My conclusion is that Chesky not only botched the recording, they did nothing right to catch a vibe.
