| | Description: | | Bennie Wallace (b. 1946) is a jazz tenor saxophonist who is somewhat underappreciated in his home country but has a huge following in Europe and Japan. His underexposure is partly due to his decision to concentrate on film music production for a better part of the 1990s, but he has recorded quite a few great albums for Germany's Enja Records since the late 1970s and after his "comeback" in 1998.
This is one of the four Enja albums -- now considered classics -- reissued by Universal Music Japan on its brand-new SHM-CD format that offers superior sound and is compatible with all regular CD players.
In Berlin was recorded at 1999 Berlin Jazz Festival, and Wallace's first live album in more than 20 years. He is suppored here by a great trio of George Cables, Peter Washington and Herlin Riley. Inspired by his superb bandmates and the enthusiastic audience, Wallace plays standards and his original compositions with full strength.
Deserving of special mention is the superb sound of this recording. The recording engineer captured the natural ambience of the concert while preserving the instrumental detail. This CD also comes with full Englisn liner notes. Highly recommended both for music lovers and audiophiles!
Produced by Ulf Drechsel. Recorded on November 6, 1999 at JazzFest Berlin, Germany. Mastered by Bernie Grundman. Originally released by Enja Records in 2001. This Japanese, limited SHM-CD edition was released by Universal Japan on August 20, 2008. | | Eastwind Import Price: | |
