Jacky Terrasson - A Paris... flac album

Another highlight is Terrasson resuscitating his funk version of Cole Porter's "I Love Paris," the only song by an American writer and the very one that led off Terrasson's 1994 debut album. Bassist Ugonna Okegwo and drummer Leon Parker, Terrasson's trio mates from his first three albums, both return to play on the Porter track, as well as the opening Piaf number "Plaisir d'Amour" and an exquisite reading of Jacques Brel's "Ne Me Quitte Pa. The latter briefly features Gregoire Maret on harmonica, who played on What It Is. Several rather.

Jacky Terrasson's 1999 album, What It Is, represented something of a risk. Gone, it seemed, was the sparse, acoustic approach that had originally given Terrasson his fame. What's more, A Paris is packed with new and varied ideas that work, not to mention passionate, fiery playing throughout. Only the last two tracks are originals, the fewest ever on a Terrasson album. The rest of the tracks are Terrasson's highly personal readings of songs from French culture.

Label: Blue Note Records. Terrason tips his hat and heart to the city of his youth with a mix of French standards, American tunes about Paris and two original numbers. Terrason completely reconfigures "La Vie En Rose," but he's the rare modern jazz keyboardist who actively enjoying playing (and playing around with) a great melody.

For better or worse, Jacky Terrasson’s À Paris was my introduction to jazz. Years before I went into a music store and picked up Miles Davis’ In A Silent Way, I was in my mom’s car driving through Golden Gate Park on a late Sunday afternoon. The sun was obscured by clouds, as is often the case in San Francisco. My mom had me put in a CD, and she told me, This is French jazz. I looked at the cover. It showed Jacky on his damp roof. He was barefoot and held out an umbrella lackadaisically to protect him from the clearing skies. Out in the distance were other quaint French buildings.

With A Paris, fleet-fingered pianist Jacky Terrasson delivers a soulful and sonic tribute to the City of Light and France. Backed by drummers Terreon Gully and Leon Parker, percussionist Minio Gara, Stefon Harris on marimba, and bassists Remi Vignolo and Ugonna Okegwo, Terrasson-who's worked with vocalists Betty Carter and Cassandra Wilson-reinterprets a number of classic French chansons into a diverse array of jazz idioms.
