Is It Because I'm Black is Vattel Cherry's first
solo CD. Released in 1998, this recording is one of the finest acoustic bass
performances to come down the road in a long, long time. "Cherry is best known,
perhaps, for his work with tenor saxophonist Charles Gayle and others in the realm of
free-style jazz. For this recording, the bassist reaches back to his roots, with poignant
though fairly straight versions of timeless classics such as Go Down Moses, Wade
in the Water, and Sometimes I Feel Like Motherless Child. He does
stretch out, particularly on his own compositions...but it is his bass that carries the
day. Its rich sonorities ring through with grace and elegance." ---Steven A.
Loewy, All Music Guide. Twelve tracks in 41 minutes Selected clips: Ev'ry Time I Feel The Spirit Go Down Moses One Final Note |
