  • Review
    Though this ranks as one of the arranger Gil Evans’ minor achievements in the grand scheme of things, for Kenny Burrell it was a career-defining moment, one of his most individual, most multi-faceted, most emotionally affecting recordings. Whether playing straight-ahead and countrified blues on electric guitar, dipping into the bossa nova and brooding post-Sketches of Spain backgrounds on acoustic guitar, or interpreting classical music, Burrell quietly lets the world know that he can be as versatile as he is tasteful. Evans collectors should know that Evans’ charts only appear on five of the selections. On three others, Burrell is featured with a swinging conga-accented combo that includes pianist Roger Kellaway, and Burrell goes solo on a transcribed excerpt from George Gershwin’s “Prelude No. 2” for piano. What is special about this release is not so much the improved sound as the inclusion of a truckload of outtakes from the small-group sessions, which have the effect of doubling the length of the original album. All of them – four takes each of the bluesy “Downstairs” and “Breadwinner” and three of “Terrace Theme” – are worth hearing, for Burrell’s invention rarely flags.
    – Richard S. Ginell

    Moon and Sand
    "Moon and Sand" by Kenny Burrell and the Gil Evans Orchestra is one of the most interesting guitar performances with a Latin combo that I have ever heard. The congas are dramatically panned to the left and the small drum kit at the right, giving the sensation of being stuck into the speakers.

    The orchestra is in the back, and Kenny's acoustic guitar (recorded unamplified and without any compression devices) is closer to the listener. Rudy Van Gelder's engineering skills give the listener the sensation of being in a nightclub. Reverberation is one of the "key signatures" of the analog Verve Jazz sound in the sixties, produced by Creed Taylor.

    – Javier Moreno
