Comments

reissue of EmArcy MG-36063 “Cannonball Adderley And Strings”.

promotional copy (for broadcast) with white Mercury label.

fake stereo version (but not too bad to listen to).

Inside The Groove

Cannonball with Strings.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

One of the “with Strings” Modern Jazz albums. Some “with Strings” album too wonderful, some just boring.

But this album, recorded in 1955 and firstly appeared as an EmArcy album, is rather fine example of such albums. Although Cannonball plays his alto so smooth, it's still Jazz.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

7 out of 10
