User Reviews: Freddie Freeloader

  • Overall:

    a must-have for jazz vocal lovers

    By Alex  Aug 23, 1999

    Jon Hendricks is amazing: an amazing lyricist and an amazing singer. This album represents some of his best work, in my opinion.His "Freddie Freeloader" is a phenomenal tour de force. I prefer it to the Miles Davis et al. original! His "Estate" (In ...Summer) is definitive and gorgeous. This is one of my favorite tracks anywhere, period.The list goes on.The all-star cast includes (in no particular order) George Benson, Bobby McFerrin, Al Jarreau, Wynton Marsalis, The Count Basie Orchestra, ...Buy it!

Pro Reviews: Freddie Freeloader

  • All Music Guide

    This CD would be highly recommended if only for Jon Hendricks' brilliant vocalese version of "Freddie Freeloader," which has Bobby McFerrin singing pianist Wynton Kelly's part, Al Jarreau as Miles Davis, George Benson as Cannonball Adderley, and Hendricks recreating John Coltrane. However, all 13 selections on this very memorable set have their strong moments, and the other guests include the Manhattan Transfer, the Count Basie Orchestra, Wynton Marsalis, Stanley Turrentine, Tommy Flanagan, Al Grey, and the Jon Hendricks Vocalstra. "Jumpin' at the Woodside" recalls the Lambert, Hendricks Ross version, Judith Hendricks sings Louis Armstrong's solos on "Stardust" and "Swing That Music," Turrentine helps to recreate "Sugar," there are a couple of Thelonious Monk tunes, and the exciting proceedings conclude with "Sing, Sing, Sing." Essential music.

Hendricks grew up in Toledo, OH, singing on local radio. After a period in the military (1942-1946), he studied law but eventually switched to jazz. He... Read more
