+ Nat Adderley, J.J. Johnson, Donald Byrd u.a.
The real start of his dazzling career sounds like a fairy tale. One nigh in 1955, in New York, a few months after Charlie Parker’s death, who counts among his master at the alto saxophone , Julian "Cannonball" Adderley is “jamming" at the Café Bohemia with the resident band led by bass player Oscar Pettiford. The custom then was about unsettling a visitor. Cannonball will improvise on I'll Remember April on a raging tempo with such brilliance he was welcome with open arms, from that night by the New York jazz, which was to consider him, a little too quickly, as a new messiah.
Julian was born in Tampa, Florida, in 1928.He had studied music at high school, learning to play the flute, trumpet, clarinet and alto saxophone before he conducted an orchestra at Fort Lauderdale’s Dillard High School. He had led other bands in the army, in Fort Knox, then went back to Florida before trying the big plunge in 1955. His younger brother Nat had joined him, and was to stay with him till the end, in a quintet that will last, with more and more success – except for the time spent by Cannonball with Miles Davis in 1957 - 1959 – until a stroke killed him in 1975 at the age of 47. His nickname, "Cannibal" then "Cannonball", he owed to his voracious appetite, an appetite recognizable in his playing. He expressed himself with great lyricism, plenty of generosity, an extreme swing, a deep sense of blues, with a full and warm tone which owed as much to Benny Carter and Johnny Hodges as to Parker.
This selection offers recordings made during his first year in New York. At the time renowned and experienced musicians crowded around him, vouching for his exceptional talent: reading the tracks, pianists Horace Silver and Hank Jones, masters in accompaniment, a young arranger named Quincy Jones, and three drummers who wrote the modern history of their instrument, Kenny Clarke, Max Roach and Roy Haynes…
