Alto saxophonist Pete Brown has been showing up on Keynote and Savoy reissues
for years, but seldom if ever has there been an entire package devoted to
recordings made under his name. The Classics Chronological series has
accomplished many impressive feats, but this disc deserves special attention.
Brown brought excitement and sonic ballast to nearly every band he ever sat in
with. His works with John Kirby and especially Frankie Newton are satisfying,
but this CD contains the very heart of Browns artistry. It opens with Cannon
Ball, a boogie-woogie from 1942 sung by Nora Lee King. This relatively rare
Decca recording features Dizzy Gillespie, Jimmy Hamilton, and Sammy Price, the
pianist with whom Brown would make outstanding music a bit further on down the
road. Similarly rare and even more captivating are two extended jams recorded in
Chicago in April of 1944. Browns quartet on this date consisted of electrically
amplified guitarist Jim Daddy Walker, bassist John Levy, and drummer Eddie
Nicholson. Jims Idea and Petes Idea are groove exercises, vamping struts built
on hot riffs. Browns sax tone usually had an attractive bite to it. His facility
was comparable to that of Earl Bostic, even bordering at times on the gritty
intensity of Charlie Parker. Pete Brown was first and foremost a relentless
straight-ahead jammer who made his most stunning moves in a series of Kansas
City-style blues and boogie jams. The Savoy session of July 11, 1944, epitomizes
this Mr. Hyde aspect of the saxophonist. Four Keynote sides recorded eight days
later are just as lively. Thats My Weakness Now is light years away from the
Paul Whiteman/Bix Beiderbecke version (with silly vocal trio) recorded in June
of 1928. Trumpeter Joe Thomas was a perfect accomplice on this date, and the
rhythm section of Kenny Kersey, Milt Hinton, and J.C. Heard made this the most
artistically accomplished band that Brown ever led. Beginning with the exciting
Boot Zoot, the remaining 11 tracks are all mid-40s swing-to-bop jams with steady
R&B overtones. Guitarists Herman Mitchell, Al Casey, and Bill Moore keep things
sounding contemporary for the mid-40s. Thats the Curfew has a melodic line
similar to Fats Wallers Dry Bones. Brown actually sings on his own laid-back
Sunshine Blues, an offshoot of Trouble in Mind using that famous line The suns
gonna shine in my back door someday.
