Description

The first four cuts comprise "The Modern Windows Suite" with baritone saxophonist Jay Cameron, bassist Eddie Khan, and drummer Pete LaRoca . This is a rich, fulfilling modern jazz window into the soul of one of the most underappreciated masters of the idiom, and is clearly Bill Barron's best work in his criminally miniscule discography.

It is well-known that tenor saxophonist Bill Barron was highly regarded by fellow musicians and his many students, and underappreciated by the general public. This recording displays all the why's and wherefore's as to his unsung greatness, showcasing his clever compositions and his clear, distinct, definite tenor tone that holds allegiance to no peer or predecessor. Trumpet partner Ted Curson and younger brother Kenny, a pianist, both play on the dates that were originally issued as Modern Windows and The Tenor Stylings of Bill Barron

Modern Windows Suite, 2000. Dedication To Wanda, 04:09.

Modern Windows Suite. His older brother, tenor saxophonist and educator Bill Barron (1922-1989), was an equally gifted artist who influenced his younger sibling, as these impressive 1961 tracks show. The elder Barron echoed the '60s avant-garde style of fellow Philadelphian John Coltrane, and Barron's genius lay in brilliantly balancing individualism and inspiration.
