Description
Cut at Van Gelder in late ’62 for Blue Note, Freddie Hubbard’s Here To Stay sat on the shelf until the 70s, which is wild given the band. Hubbard lines up with Wayne Shorter, Cedar Walton, Reggie Workman and Philly Joe Jones, and the playing is lean and lively. Philly Mignon pops with that sly drum skip from Philly Joe just before Hubbard’s last chorus, and the swagger of Nostrand and Fulton makes the room feel two sizes bigger. The lone ballad is all breath and patience, Shorter’s entrance perfectly shaded. This pressing gives the music room to move, imaging is sharper and the low end sits deeper. File it next to Lee Morgan’s mid 60s Blue Notes and you’ll hear the shared bite and lyric sense, with Hubbard pushing a touch more heat. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Freddie Hubbard records online with us. Put it on for a late Friday wind-down and it quietly takes over the night in the best way. Nice to see this one back in Melbourne where hard bop still shifts copies to folks who want tunes and spark in equal measure. A quietly essential Blue Note date. We make it easy to buy Freddie Hubbard records online or pick up a copy in our Melbourne record shop.
