Artist: Ted Curson Title Of Album: The New Thing & The Blue Thing Year Of Release: 1965 Label: Reprise/WEA/Warner Genre: Jazz, Hard Bop, Post-Bop Quality: FLAC (tracks+. Ted Curson - trumpet Bill Barron - tenor saxophone Georges Arvanitas - piano Herb Bushler - bass Dick Berk - drums. Stunning early work from trumpeter Ted Curson – a record that's got as much soul and rock-solid power as you'd guess from the image on the cover! Ted's working here in the company of his frequent partner from the early days – tenorist Bill Barron – and together, they come up with a riveting sound that rivals the genius of early 60s work from Charles Mingus or Booker Ervin – with a similar blend of sharp edges, tight rhythms, and in the pocket soul!
