Our Take

In the annals of jazz history, few pianists can boast the level of innovation and sheer Greco-Roman athleticism on display in Walter Davis Jr.'s "Davis Cup." This album is a veritable smorgasbord of sonic delights, a musical feast for the ears that will leave you simultaneously grooving and scratching your head in disbelief. From the moment the needle hits the wax on the opening track, "Oleo," it's clear that Davis is in a league of his own. His fingers fly across the keys with the speed and precision of a cheetah in heat, navigating complex chord progressions and lightning-fast bebop lines with effortless grace. It's a tour de force of virtuosity that will make even the most seasoned jazz aficionado question their life choices. But "Davis Cup" isn't just about technical prowess. Tracks like "Come Rain or Come Shine" and "Willow Weep for Me" showcase Davis's sensitive side, his ability to wring every ounce of emotion from a melody with the subtlety of a ninja sneaking up on a dozing samurai. It's a masterclass in musical empathy, a reminder that sometimes the quietest notes speak the loudest. In conclusion, "Davis Cup" is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast looking to expand their horizons and challenge their preconceptions. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, settle back in your comfiest armchair, and prepare to be blown away by the sheer genius of Walter Davis Jr. He may not have won Wimbledon, but he's definitely serving up a musical ace with this one.
