The last of trumpeter Roy Hargrove’s recordings to feature his longtime altoist Antonio Hart also includes pianist Marc Cary, bassist Rodney Whitaker, drummer Gregory Hutchinson and guest spots for the tenors of Branford Marsalis and David “Fathead” Newman, plus trombonist Frank Lacy and organist Jack McDuff. Hargrove (still just 22) was already on his way to being one of the better hard bop-based trumpeters in jazz, as he shows on group originals, James Williams’ “Alter Ego,” Wayne Shorter’s “Pinocchio,” “Milestones,” and “The Things We Did Last Summer.” A fine example of Hargrove’s rapidly emerging style (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).

RIP.................

Roy Hargrove‘s second recording as a leader features the 21-year-old trumpeter in late 1990 essentially playing bebop. Joined by altoist Antonio Hart, pianist Stephen Scott, bassist Christian McBride, and drummer Billy Higgins, Hargrove shows why he was so highly rated from the start of his career. On such numbers as “September in the Rain,” “End of a Love Affair,” “Crazeology,” and four of his straight-ahead originals, Hargrove plays in a style not that different from Lee Morgan but with his own soulful sound, revitalizing the jazz tradition with his enthusiastic ideas. A fun set (Scott Yanow/AllMusic). Alto Saxophone – Antonio Hart Double Bass – Christian McBride Drums – Billy Higgins Piano – Stephen Scott Trumpet – Roy Hargrove
