VINTAGE! Martial Solal & Dave Liebman: Masters on Bordeaux

Recorded in concert at a jazz and wine festival in 2016, this album between legends Marital Solal/p and Dave Liebman/ts-ss makes for a rare blend. The sounds are angular and big with Liebman on soprano on a peek a boo game with the pianist on “Solar” while he’s intuitive and oaked on an opulent and relaxed “All The Things You Are.” The team is refined as Liebman’s tenor delivers subtones while sighing during an oaky “On Green Dolphin Street” while the drapery is strong as Liebman delivers a clever staccato intro to a flamboyant “What is This Thing Called Love?” Solal is food friendly on the dreamy “Lover Man” and airs out well during an impressionistic “Night and Day.” The two pair well!
