Pro Reviews: There I Go Again

  • All Music Guide

    This fine two-LP set from 1980 covers singer Eddie Jefferson's Prestige years, including 23 of the highpoints. Four selections are from the 1950s, while the remainder date from 1961-62 and 1968-69. Among the innovative singer's sidemen are tenors James Moody and Johnny Griffin, pianists Wynton Kelly, Junior Mance and Barry Harris, trumpeters Clark Terry and Bill Hardman, and altoist Charles McPherson. The many highlights include "I Got the Blues," "Disappointed," "Parker's Mood," "Things Are Getting Better," "Body and Soul" (heard in two versions), "Filthy McNasty" and "There I Go, There I Go Again." This was a definitive sampler at the time, but virtually all of the performances have since been reissued in more complete form on CD.
