Freddie Hubbard - Skylark

Review by Ashley Pauls

Skylark, the 1978 album by jazz trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, is a captivating and soulful masterpiece that showcases his virtuosity and musical prowess. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, each of which is a testament to Hubbard's musicianship and creativity.

The album opens with the title track, a beautiful rendition of the classic Hoagy Carmichael tune. Hubbard's smooth and melodic trumpet playing is perfectly complemented by the lush arrangements of the backing band, which includes the likes of George Benson and Ron Carter.

Other standout tracks include the funky "Gibraltar," the upbeat and energetic "The Things We Did Last Summer," and the hauntingly beautiful "I'm Glad There Is You." Throughout the album, Hubbard's playing is both technically impressive and emotionally resonant, making for a truly unforgettable listening experience.

Mr. Hubbard shows all trumpet players there's more to the art of trumpet than just playing high notes . It's everything in between that counts . That's what separates a true jazz trumpet player from a regular lead trumpet player in a showband .That art of improvisation . Some musicians are born with it and others have to work on it. But that's what separates jazz from classical it's called freedom. Something African-Americans and indeginous people have been cheated of .This art form gives true spiritual freedom to those who love, play and study it .

Jazzy, thank you for posting this. It is a critical piece of music. This also tells me another story about Freddie Hubbard. Many drunk arguments I had with my father about him. I felt like Freddie underachieved. Pop said I didn't modally get Hubb. Ultimately, the old man was correct. But I put up a good enough fight to Pops's respect as a gormandizer

First time I heard this album was just before I went to Berklee School of Music....it blew me away! Musical genius and chops from here to eternity. What a musician he was. May he rest in peace.
