Here is what people are saying about the Horace Silver - Song for My Father
5 Star Rating  "A Suite for His Father"2009-09-11
- Reviewed By User: AGKAEFSBDTQ04
The original six tracks of Horace Silver's beautiful "Song for My Father," using a sometimes stately trumpet/tenor sax motif, fiery but never overlong solos, and Silver's self-effacing piano, all of it concluding with a long, sublime epilogue of memory and bittersweet notes, suggests a formal structure that hovers over the proceedings without imposing itself on the listener. As Bob Blumental's 1999 notes explain, this latest incarnation of "Song for My Father" is from three sessions spread out over a year, from October 1963 to October 1964, with two different Horace Silver Quintets. The track order as originally conceived shows the formidable intuition of producer Alfred Lion, who even more importantly urged Silver to hire Carmell Jones, Joe Henderson, Teddy Smith and Roger Humphries, the quintet you mostly hear on the original album. As Blumenthal relates it, the story grows complicated and a bit disheartening, but in the end it makes all that Silver and his producer achieved seem even more impressive. The only problem, however, is the additional four tracks: they range from perfectly OK to enjoyably fine, but as they play, that achievement begins to melt away, ultimately spoiling the suite-like effect which "Song for My Father" imparts. Listen only to the first six tracks-- the album as Horace Silver and Alfred Lion envisioned it, and leave off the baggage for a separate hearing, preferably on another day.
 
5 Star Rating  "This Silver is solid gold"2009-04-30
- Reviewed By esedensky
Before I got really serious about jazz, I'd read an article in the Wall Street Journal that suggested five "must have" jazz recordings. One of them was Blowin' the Blues Away by a guy I had never heard of, Horace Silver. (Like I said, I wasn't serious about jazz at the time.) I picked up Blowin' and found the work impressive and inspirational. Silver became one of my jazz beacons. Soon after, in order to make more informed jazz music purchases, I picked up The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings: Eighth Edition and set my sail by their "Core Collection", which included Blowin'. I noticed also their crown collection, which included this CD, so when I had the chance to pick this up for three bucks (music club closeout), I did. I have to say, SFMF is a really wonderful recording, and even with as much play as I've gotten out of Blowin', I think SFMF is going to be a "go to" disk for a long time. The Latin flavor is sensational, but delicate, managing to deftly balance the jazz aspects with the Latin influence without letting one sublimate the other. The bands' (there are two of them plus a trio) executions are fluid and flawless, and Silver's blues tinged piano is bright but inconspicuous throughout, a pivotal piece in the group that serves to drive the song down the road from the navigator's chair without grabbing the steering wheel. Every song is just delightful to listen to. As usual, the Rudy Van Gelder edition is clean and crisp, and as usual, Blue Notes provides original and updated liner notes with this edition, a plus that I've come to expect and always appreciate. The night before I first listened to this (although I'd heard some of the songs before), I had slept only two hours, and I was very drowsy and irritable after a twelve hour day at work when I put the CD on. I was sure I would just drift off to sleep anyway. But actually, as tired as I was, the music kept me interested and awake, as well as soothed and relaxed. I listened to it three times running. I daresay no other CD in my collection (nearly 200 jazz titles now) has ever done that. As far as I'm concerned, Silver takes the gold. This CD is great and will not disappoint any jazz fan, heavy or light.

Note also that the penguin jazz guide is now available in a ninth edition: The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings: Ninth Edition

I heard this song on TV and searched for it with nothing more than the song title. But then I received the CD and fell in love with every last cut. I am happy with my purchase, I am happy that it came earlier than promised and I am happy to do business with Amazon......you rock.
 
5 Star Rating  "Joe Henderson's title track solo - TIMELESS"2008-12-08
- Reviewed By gioconda91423
I heard this on the radio today, and was moved to tears by Joe Henderson's solo on the title track.

And I've been listening to this recording since 1970!

I met McCoy Tyner at a tiny jazz club once, and when mentioned his former boss, Mr. 'Trane, he said simply:
"Many are called, but few are chosen."

Thanks to all the beautiful "chosen ones" who created "Song For My Father." Horace Silver et al makes the world a better place.

It's true, the tunes are basic jazz 101. So? Sometimes the hard bop is too much, and it's cool to just kick back & loll in the classics.

This recording truly enriched my entire life.

Thanks, guys. Peace forever.
 
5 Star Rating  "Still fine wine"2008-08-23

I originally purchased this album in 1964. It was one of my favorites then and it still is. Silver's hard charging jazz is a benchmark piece for this period. Excellent solo work by Blue Mitchell and Junior Cook are excellent.
I feel that this is a "must have" album for fans of jazz in the 50's and 60's.
 
5 Star Rating  "Joe Henderson's tenor Solo on the Title track will haunt you"2008-06-03
- Reviewed By paulocal
One of the most beautiful Jazz albums one is ever likely to own. It is "vintage Silver," backed up by his favorite side men, including the incomparable Joe Henderson on tenor, who at the time was just hitting his "post-Coltrane" stride.

The centerpiece of the album is of course the famous Portuguese flavored song (Silver has Portuguese roots) and title piece, "Song for my father" (Cantiga para meu pao).

It is almost religious in its haunting repetitious vamp. And one is unlikely to ever hear a more beautiful, subtler, solo than that crafted by Henderson on this track. Its beauty is almost "stealth-like" in the way it creeps up on you. It begins innocently enough and then builds into a subdued but violent crescendo, and then dies away as if nothing ever happened: all done without the classical musical fireworks, just the facts man. Amen

I had the opportunity to meet Henderson off stage at Blues Alley just to tell him how much that one solo meant to me and to the Jazz world. He understood and appreciated the compliment.

Five Stars
