The word "chops" is a major understatement when describing the talents of guitarist
Joe Pass and bassist
Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen. Their duo Pablo date is as exciting and full of inventive interplay as one would hope.
Pass and
Pedersen play an ad-lib blues, nine jazz standards including a three-quarters version of "Lover Man," plus "Oleo," "Quiet Nights," "Tricrotism," and "Yardbird Suite."
Pass in particular sounds stimulated during this session and comes up with some of his hottest playing. ~ Scott Yanow
