Not many musicians reach the level of artistic personality where you can unmistakably recognize them. It takes character, roots, honesty, soulfulness. Nathan Davis had style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHis tone on tenor was unique. So was his soprano sound and his distinctive approach to flute. His musical world was equally original and knew no boundaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis concert in Paris is audible proof that as a performer, his fluid phrasing, distinct articulation, booming bottom register, growls and shrieks were fuelled by tremendous drive and furious invention—the man was on fire!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese live sessions demonstrate the limitless invention of Nathan’s solos. Holding no punches, weaving signature phrases, shouts and riffs into his solos, he was a fierce and fervid performer. With a sort of hollow resonance at the heart of his reedy and warm sound, Nathan Davis was a highly original artist, from an era when having a distinct sound on your instrument was the grail of jazz artistry. Harold Land, Jimmy Heath, John Gilmore, Paul Gonsalves, Charlie Rouse, George Coleman, Booker Ervin, Clifford Jordan… Jazz is made of such giants and Nathan Davis was one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e– Jean Szlamowicz –\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSide A \u0026amp; B : recorded at Studio 105 Charles Trenet, Maison de la Radio, Paris, France, November 19, 1966.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide C, D \u0026amp; E (track 1) : recorded at Musée d’Art Moderne, Paris, October 22, 1967.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide E (track 2) : recorded at The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées, Paris, France, February 9, 1965.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePersonnel on Side A, B, C, D \u0026amp; E, track 1:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNathan Davis (saxophone)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeorges Arvanitas (piano and organ)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJacky Samson (bass)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharles Saudrais (drums).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePersonnel on Side E, track 2:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJazz aux Champs-Elysées All-Stars:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNathan Davis (saxophone)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJack Diéval (piano)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJacques Hess (bass)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFranco Manzecchi (drums).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n[[Selling Points]]\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemastered from the original master tapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3LP-Set – 180-gram vinyl pressed by Optimal in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGatefold cover with full size photos by Jean-Pierre Leloir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtwork by Jean-Louis Duralek\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut at SST Studio in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTracks \u0026amp; informations on removable orange strip (OBI)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotes inside with an essay by Jean Szlamowicz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach record has been visually checked to prevent defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n[[Catalog Number]]SR20[[Artist]]Nathan Davis With Georges Arvanitas Trio","brand":"Sam Records","offers":[{"title":"Live In Paris: The ORTF Recordings 1966-1967 \/ Album \/ 3LP Black","offer_id":48416831832309,"sku":"SR20","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6417\/2096\/files\/3770010277019.jpg?v=1784163729","url":"https:\/\/lightintheattic.net\/products\/live-in-paris-the-ortf-recordings-1966-1967","provider":"Light in the Attic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
