{"product_id":"freddie-hubbard-red-clay-holland-import","title":"Freddie Hubbard - Red Clay [Holland Import]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFreddie Hubbard's Red Clay sits at the crossroads where hard bop met funk, and this 180-gram import in a gatefold jacket gives the 1970 classic a handsome showcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of hard bop's most electrifying trumpeters, Hubbard had already played on landmark records by Ornette Coleman, Eric Dolphy and Oliver Nelson before joining producer Creed Taylor's new CTI label, where he helped define its sound. Recorded at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, the session pairs him with Joe Henderson on tenor saxophone, Herbie Hancock on electric piano and organ, Ron Carter on bass and Lenny White on drums, a line-up that bridges acoustic jazz tradition and the electric grooves of a new decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe title track is the stuff of legend, a long, funky vamp that lets Hubbard's brassy, soaring lines ride over Carter's insistent bass figure. \"Delphia\" is a lyrical, slow-burning ballad, \"Suite Sioux\" moves with taut, modal energy, and \"The Intrepid Fox\" closes things at full tilt, with Hubbard and Henderson trading fiery solos over a racing rhythm section.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew albums capture the moment jazz began flirting with funk quite so gracefully. It belongs on any serious jazz shelf, and this heavyweight pressing does it real justice. Put it on and let the groove do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761627758882,"sku":"8719262046290","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Freddie_Hubbard-Red_Clay_Holland_Import.jpg?v=1794308776","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/freddie-hubbard-red-clay-holland-import","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
