Jazz Christmas: Stan Kenton, Jimmy Smith, Chet Baker

What this episode covers

Il nostro inventario in progress del jazz legato al Natale e al periodo delle feste riprende dall'album di Stan Kenton su cui abbiamo concluso nella puntata del 25 dicembre, continua con Christmas '64 (poi ripubblicato nel '66 col titolo Christmas Cookin') di Jimmy Smith, dagli anni cinquanta popolarissimo specialista dell'organo Hammond, e si conclude con Silent Nights, album inciso nel 1986 da Chet Baker. Come racconta il libro di Jeroen De Valk, tradotto nel 2022 da EDt col titolo Chet Baker vita e musica, la seduta da cui nacque l'album è fra l'altro un esempio della capacità del trombettista di "appropriarsi rapidamente di materiale nuovo": Baker infatti non aveva mai inciso prima, e non aveva mai suonato dal vivo, nessuno dei brani, Silent Night in testa, scelti per l'album dal sassofonista Christopher Mason.
