Tracks list

This previously unreleased music is subtitled The Last Concert. Ben Webster,
Clifford Brown and Rosemary Clooney are among those who have also had their
final performance released on record. In Peppers case, the great altoists health
had been a bit shaky but he sounds remarkably strong and passionate throughout
this concert. Laurie Peppers superb liner notes give listeners the very human
story behind this gig which features the altoist with the virtuoso pianist Roger
Kellaway (who had been enlisted for the tour after George Cables had departed to
join Sarah Vaughan), bassist David Williams and drummer Carl Burnett during an
hour-long performance at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. Pepper, who
during his last years played every solo as if it might be his last, puts a lot
of passion and creativity into Landscape, Ophelia and especially Mambo Koyama,
really stretching himself. Over the Rainbow is lyrical but no less intense while
the final number, When Youre Smiling, was dedicated to Peppers childhood friend
Zoot Sims (whom he had happily met backstage) and features him playing clarinet.
Art Pepper, who plays brilliantly throughout, had planned to play one more song
but he was given ten minutes less than he expected and his time ran out. Ten
days later he fell into a coma and he passed away six days after that. This very
valuable disc is additional proof that, no matter what his personal
circumstances might be at any given moment, in his musical life Art Pepper never
sounded less than great.
