{"product_id":"gabriel-charlie-89","title":"Gabriel, Charlie - 89","description":"\u003cp\u003eLimited translucent gold colored vinyl LP pressing.\u003cstrong\u003e Charlie Gabriel\u003c\/strong\u003e's first professional gig dates to 1943, sitting in for his father in New Orleans' Eureka Brass Band. As a teenager living in Detroit, Charlie played with Lionel Hampton, whose band then included a young Charles Mingus, later spending nine years with a group led by Cab Calloway drummer J.C. Heard. While he's also fronted a bebop quintet, played and\/or toured with Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennet, Aretha Franklin and many more, this is the first time his name appears on the front of a record, as a bandleader. Since 2006, Gabriel has been a member of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band. Eighty Nine was different, and not simply due to a smaller ensemble. \"We had no particular plan, or any particular insight on what we were gonna do. But we were enjoying what we were doing, jamming, having a musical conversation,\" Charlie says, further musing, \"Musical conversations cancel out complications.\" Eighty Nine includes six standards and three newer pieces on which Gabriel is a writer: \"Yellow Moon,\" \"The Darker It Gets\" and \"I Get Jealous.\" The record also marks Charlie's return to his first instrument, clarinet, on many of the tracks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 Memories of You\u003cbr\u003e2 Chelsea Bridge\u003cbr\u003e3 I'm Confessin'\u003cbr\u003e4 The Darker It Gets\u003cbr\u003e5 Stardust\u003cbr\u003e6 Three Little Words\u003cbr\u003e7 Yellow Moon\u003cbr\u003e8 I Get Jealous\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sub Pop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49534300520586,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0361\/4955\/9434\/files\/6623892-115c4a71954d4609b2c89aa9f5e925c0.jpg?v=1781218495","url":"https:\/\/afkbooksandrecords.com\/products\/gabriel-charlie-89","provider":"AFK Books \u0026 Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
