Description

*Non Japan-made disc. Several years ago, Allan said: 'I have not yet reached the level of ability to interpret and perform the works of the jazz artists who influenced me, or to turn them into works of my own... Honestly, I think that would be presumptuous. Of course, I hope the time will come when I can do that.' Several years later, he finally produced an album that includes cover works of jazz music. The members are pianist Gordon Beck, known for creating a renowned album with alto saxophone master Phil Woods, technical bassist Gary Willis, who is active with Tribal Tech, and their drummer Kirk Covington. Beginning with "Countdown" from John Coltrane's historic masterpiece "Giant Steps", followed by "Nuages" by Django Reinhardt, performed as a gentle ballad with SynthAxe and electric guitar. Interspersed with the modern title track "None Too Soon", a suite-form piece penned by Gordon Beck, he inherits the spirit of other illustrious jazz artists such as Joe Henderson and Bill Evans and expresses them in their style. A gem that proves Holdsworth's love for jazz. Japan domestic specifications for imported discs. E-type single limited cardboard sleeve with liner notes.

Description in Japanese

ノーン・トゥー・スーン [初回限定盤] [SACD Hybrid] / アラン・ホールズワース

「僕が影響受けたジャズ・アーティストの作品を自分なりに解釈して演奏したり、作品化する能力の領域にまだ自分は達していない・・・ 正直言ってそれはおこがましい事じゃないかと思っている。勿論、その時期が来ることを願っているよ」それから数年、遂にアランはジャズ・ミュージックのカヴァー作品が収録されたアルバムを制作した。アルト・サックスの巨匠フィル・ウッズと作り上げた名盤で名高いピアニストのゴードン・ベック、トライバル・テックで活動しているテクニカル・ベーシストのゲイリー・ウィルスと、そのドラマーであるカーク・コヴェントンというメンバーで構成。ジョン・コルトレーンの歴史的名盤『ジャイアント・ステップス (原題: Giant Steps)』に収められている「カウントダウン」から始まり、続くジャンゴ・ラインハルトの「雲」ではシンタックスとエレクトリック・ギターでしっとりとしたバラードを披露。ゴードン・ベックのペンによる組曲形式のモダンなタイトル・ナンバー「ナン・トゥ・スーン」を挟みつつ、他にもジョー・ヘンダーソンやビル・エヴァンスといった名だたるジャズ・アーティストの魂を受け継ぎ、彼らの流儀で表現している。ホールズワースのジャズ愛を証明する珠玉の一枚。輸入盤国内仕様。E式シングル限定紙ジャケット仕様〈ライナーノーツ付〉
