Chico Hamilton - The Best Of Chico Hamilton
Review by Miyata Shinobu
The Best Of Chico Hamilton is a must-have album for any jazz enthusiast. Chico Hamilton, a renowned jazz drummer, has put together a collection of some of his best works from the 1950s and 1960s. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, showcasing Hamilton's versatility and skill as a musician.
The album opens with the upbeat and energetic "Blue Sands," which immediately sets the tone for the rest of the album. Hamilton's drumming is impeccable, driving the rhythm forward and keeping the listener engaged. The album also features some slower, more contemplative tracks, such as "September Song," which showcases Hamilton's ability to create a mood and atmosphere with his drumming.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Conquistadores," which features a driving rhythm and some impressive solos from the other members of Hamilton's band. The track is a perfect example of the tightness and cohesion that Hamilton and his band were able to achieve.
