Description
Used 1989 OJC/Fantasy Stereo Reissue of Classic 1963 Contemporary Release of Bandleader/Composer/Alto Sax Master Art Pepper Entitled Intensity, Produced by Lester Koenig, Sound by Roy Du Nann, Album Recorded at Contemporary Records in Los Angeles on November 23rd & 25th in 1960, Liner Notes by Koenig - "The Intensity LP was the final album of altoist Art Pepper's early period and was released when he was already serving a long prison sentence due to his addiction to heroin. Assisted by pianist Dolo Coker, bassist Jimmy Bond, and drummer Frank Butler, Pepper was just starting to show the influence of John Coltrane and Ornette Coleman in his style, freeing up his playing and displaying a greater intensity during his improvisations. Ironically, Pepper sticks to swinging standards such as "I Can't Believe That You're in Love with Me," "Gone with the Wind," and "I Wished on the Moon" as points of departure on this interesting and largely enjoyable set. Excluding a 1973 recording with Mike Vax's big band, it would be 15 years before Art Pepper led another record date in the studios." - Sensational Personnel for the Quartet Features legendary Composer Art Pepper on Alto Sax, Dolo Coker on Piano, Jimmy Bond on Bass and Frank Butler on Drums! - Selections on Side a Are I Can't Believe that You're in Love with Me, Cole Porter's I Love You at 5 Minutes 25 Seconds, Come Rain or Come Shine & Long Ago(and Far Away) - Tracks for Side 2 Consist of Gone with the Wind, I Wished on the Moon and Too Close for Comfort at 6 Minutes 46 Seconds - Used Copy, Cover Near Mint, Record Mint- - Stereo Recording, Product Code OJC-387 - California Residents Add 9.75% Sales Tax - International S & H Extra -
