  • The title says it all: "Somethin' Else" !

    Jazz enthusiasts who are particular to the "cool" era of jazz, the period that followed "bebop", will very much appreciate this fine album by alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley.. The album features top notch musicians Miles Davis on trumpet, Hank Jones on piano, Sam Jones on upright bass, and Art Blakey on drums. It should be noted that it was a rare occasion when Miles Davis played on another musicians' record. But this is "Somethin' Else", and it so happens that Cannonball Adderley had played alto sax in the Miles Davis Sextet from 1957 to 1960, along with John Coltrane on tenor sax. Cannonball's exquisite sound on Miles' classic "Kind Of Blue" album is priceless, and it ranks amongst the best jazz albums of all time. "Somethin' Else" featured only five songs, when it was first released on vinyl on March 9, 1958. However, the subsequently released CD features a bonus track, "Alison's Uncle". The album begins with the classic jazz standard, "Autumn Leaves" and features Miles on mute trumpet, a sound he was famous for. My favorite track is the second one, called, "Love For Sale", which has a bouncy, Latin feel. Then, the title track, "Somethin' Else", followed by "One For Daddy-O" and then "Dancing In The Dark". The final track on the CD is the bonus track, "Alison's Uncle". The album was masterfully produced by Alfred Lyon. I highly recommend this album to all who appreciate fine jazz music of the late fifties.
