In the mid-'50s, guitarist Tal Farlow led one of his finest groups, a
drumless trio with pianist Eddie Costa and bassist Vinnie Burke. The
same band would record the album Tal a week or two later. With Burke
contributing a constant walking bass, the interplay between Farlow and
Costa is always exciting, whether they are playing unisons or trading
off. This 1999 CD reissue not only has the original seven selections but
"Gone With the Wind" (which was left off of the original LP due to lack
of space) plus three full-length alternate takes that are basically on
the same level as the masters. Among the highpoints are "Taking a Chance
on Love," "Yardbird Suite," "Like Someone in Love," and Farlow's lone
original, "Meteor," which utilizes the chord changes of "Confirmation."
Hot bebop that is easily recommended. Scott Yanow
