MisfitsCafe.com - Benny Golson + Minnie Riperton

 

Like its same-year companion "Groovin' With Golson", 1959's "Gone With Golson" pairs composer/arranger/saxophonist Benny Golson with trombonist Curtis Fuller (shortly after this release, the two formed the Jazztet with Art Farmer). Like "Groovin'", "Gone" offers solid hard-bop fare with an aura of elegance and relaxation. Golson's breathy tone on the tenor qualifies the mellow, in-the-cut vibe here, which is not to say the set doesn't cook. Both Golson and Fuller (whose extremely precise trombone technique distinguishes him from most players) blow mightily through rhythmically and harmonically complex lines, yet manage keep the whole at a sophisticated reserve.
