Its evident from the opening pair of Latin-flavored performances that Back on
the Scene is one of Bennie Greens most diverse efforts. Greens warm, supple tone
and fondness for swinging, bop-influenced mainstream jazz and jump blues hasnt
disappeared; hes just found new facets in his style. The infectious Latin
rhythms on Cole Porters I Love You and Melbas Mood are welcome, as is Youre Mine
You, which showcases Greens sensitive ballad style. Reviving the standard Just
Friends emphasizes the trombonists ties to big band and bop, particularly
through tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouses strong solos. The jumping Bennie Plays
the Blues and Green Street are also terrific, finding Green, Rouse and pianist
Joe Knight trading full-bodied solos. Even with this vast array of styles, Back
on the Scene retains all the good-natured spirit and humor of his earlier
Prestige albums.
