Our Take

Ah, Freddie Hubbard - the trumpet virtuoso, the jazz legend, the man who can make your heart soar with a single note. His album "Red Clay / Straight Life / First" combines three of his most iconic works in one glorious package, sure to delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

"Red Clay" kicks things off with a bang, with its funky bassline and infectious groove. Hubbard's trumpet playing is nothing short of magical, weaving in and out of the tight rhythm section with effortless grace. It's the kind of track that makes you want to grab a cocktail and hit the dancefloor, even if you have two left feet.

"Straight Life" takes things in a slightly different direction, with its more laid-back, introspective vibe. Hubbard's playing here is more contemplative, more soulful, as if he's baring his heart and soul for all to see. It's a hauntingly beautiful piece that will linger in your mind long after the final notes have faded.

And finally, we have "First," a true tour de force that showcases Hubbard's incredible range and versatility as a musician. From the frenetic energy of the opening track to the tender beauty of the closing ballad, Hubbard proves once again why he's considered one of the greatest jazz artists of all time.

In conclusion, "Red Clay / Straight Life / First" is a must-have for any jazz aficionado, a timeless masterpiece that will never go out of style. So grab yourself a copy, sit back, and let Freddie Hubbard take you on a musical journey like no other.

About the artist

Freddie Hubbard

Freddie Hubbard. The name alone is enough to send shivers down the spine of any jazz aficionado. With his trumpet as his weapon of choice, this legendary artist has been wowing audiences for decades with his unique blend of technical prowess and soulful expression. Born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, Hubbard cut his teeth on the local jazz scene before heading off to New York City to make a name for himself. And make a name he did, quickly becoming one of the most sought-after trumpet players in the business. Hubbard's playing style is unmistakable - fiery, passionate, and always pushing the boundaries of what is possible on the trumpet. His improvisational skills are second to none, with each note he plays dripping with emotion and raw talent. But it's not just his technical ability that sets Hubbard apart. His ability to connect with his audience on a deeper emotional level is what truly sets him apart from his peers. Whether he's belting out a blistering high note or gently caressing a soft ballad, Hubbard's music is always imbued with a sense of playfulness and joy. In a career that has spanned over five decades, Hubbard has released over 40 albums as a leader and has collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz, including Art Blakey, Herbie Hancock, and Wayne Shorter. With his incredible talent, infectious personality, and boundless energy, Freddie Hubbard is a true musical force to be reckoned with.
