	Elmo Hope at All About Jazz

	Jazzscript.co.uk - ELMO HOPE: the legend of St Elmo
		None of these happened to Elmo Hope: he was never able to hitch a ride with a major star, saw his brief musical odyssey through to its end, and died in obscurity before his forty-fourth birthday.
		A life crowned with promise and little achievement, the legend of Elmo Hope is indicative not just of this particular pianist's mix of mishap and flaw, but of the misfortune and shortcoming of the bebop pianist in general, his repertoire, his narrow approach, and his cruel environment.
		Hope's wife and fellow pianist Bertha (they married in 1960) has helped to keep his music in the public domain, touring with both her own quartet and a repertory band called ELMOllenium.

		The session was put together in 1963 by Walt Dickerson, and was conceived as an attempt to draw attention to the incredible amount of great jazz players who were then currently serving time in prison for trumped-up drug charges.

		This decent bop session features tenor-saxophonist Frank Foster and pianist Elmo Hope in a quintet with the forgotten trumpeter Freeman Lee (who is on three of the six songs), bassist John Ore and drummer Art Taylor.
		They perform three of Hope's originals, two by Foster and an uptempo version of "Georgia on My Mind." None of the originals caught on (when was the last time anyone played "Fosterity"?) and nothing that innovative occurs but the music should please bop fans.

		Saxophonist Archie Shepp played an Elmo Hope tribute on last weekend's London visit, but mostly you can go years without hearing this short-lived piano-and-composing original's name mentioned.
		When Hope died of drug-related health problems at 43 in 1967, he had shared the stage with John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and Clifford Brown; though the jazz world had began to notice him for the compositional impact he made on saxophonist Harold Land's cult late-1950s recording, The Fox.
		Though almost all the pieces are originals, the idiomatically open exploration (Hope had strong classical leanings) of Sweet and Lovely is delectable.

		Fans of bop piano and Bud Powell will want this enjoyable CD reissue.
