| A trio of Parisian sessions from Don Byas -- tracks recorded in the city that gave Don his warmest welcome of the postwar years, and which provided him with wonderful players to work with! The first 6 numbers feature a quartet with Byas on tenor and Mary Lou Williams on piano -- working here with Don in a surprisingly soulful, straight way -- really adding a lot to the set with her own original tunes "OW", "Mary's Waltz", "NME", and "Why". The next 3 numbers feature Byas working with pianist Beryl Booker, who also sings a bit too -- on a version of "I Should Care" -- alongside instrumental versions of "Makin Whoopee" and "Bery Booker's Byas-ed Blues". Last up are 3 tracks by Don Byas Et Ses Rhythmes -- a cool combo with the great Fats Sadi on vibes and Maurice Vander on piano -- on titles that include "Jordu", "Anatole", and "Lover Come Back To Me". |
