Our Take

Album: BOBBY HACKETT Dream Awhile / The Most Beautiful Horn In The World

Bobby Hackett, a name that may not immediately ring a bell for the younger crowd, but trust me, this man can blow a horn like no other. Dream Awhile / The Most Beautiful Horn In The World is a double dose of musical magic that will transport you back to a time when jazz was king and horn players were the true rockstars.

Hackett's dreamy melodies and immaculate phrasing on tracks like "Dream Awhile" will have you swaying in your seat, lost in a sea of nostalgia. His dexterity on the horn is nothing short of breathtaking, with each note cascading effortlessly into the next, like a waterfall of pure musical bliss.

And let's not forget about The Most Beautiful Horn In The World, where Hackett's virtuosity truly shines. Tracks like "I'll Get By" and "My Melancholy Baby" showcase his ability to imbue every note with emotion, making you feel as if the horn itself is speaking directly to your soul.

So, if you're in the mood for some classic jazz with a touch of elegance, look no further than BOBBY HACKETT Dream Awhile / The Most Beautiful Horn In The World. It may not be the latest chart-topper, but sometimes, the classics are just what the doctor ordered. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Bobby Hackett

Bobby Hackett, the enigmatic jazz trumpeter from Providence, Rhode Island, is a hidden gem in the music industry. His smooth, melodic style has captured the hearts of jazz enthusiasts worldwide, earning him a cult following that even the most mainstream artists would envy. With a career spanning over four decades, Hackett has collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz, including Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, and Glenn Miller. His iconic sound is instantly recognizable, blending elements of swing, Dixieland, and traditional jazz to create a unique and unforgettable musical experience. But what truly sets Hackett apart is his quirky and eccentric personality. Known for his love of oversized hats and his penchant for performing in unusual venues (think: on top of a mountain or in the middle of a forest), Hackett is a true maverick in the music industry. His offbeat sense of humour and infectious energy make him a joy to watch both on and off the stage. Despite his undeniable talent and his undeniable charm, Hackett remains a somewhat elusive figure in the music world. With a discography that includes over 50 albums, it's clear that he's no stranger to the spotlight. But for those who have had the pleasure of experiencing his music live, it's clear that Bobby Hackett is a true musical genius - a one-of-a-kind artist who deserves to be celebrated for years to come.
