Trumpeter Jon Eardley (1928-1991) made his recordingdebut with Phil Woods in 1954, when he also hit the jazz big time by replacingChet Baker in Gerry Mulligan’s celebrated quartet. For the next few years heplayed and recorded with Mulligan, including Mulligan’s outstanding sextet, butalso led three excellent record dates for Prestige.His debut quartet album “J.E. in Holllywood,” (originally called “FirstSessions”) featured a fine Pete Jolly-Red Mitchell-Larry Bunker rhythm section,and is notable for pianist Jolly’s inventive contributions and the fire, joyfulexuberance, taste and imagination of the leader on a thoroughly swingingsession. The second album, “Hey There, Jon Eardley!”, was a NYC quintet datefeaturing J.R. Monterose—one of the heartening tenors of his generation—andanother quality rhythm section in which pianist George Syran is a considerableasset. Eardley’s work here is singularly powerful. The third LP, “The J.E.Seven,” with the same rhythm section, was a particularly worthwhile blowingdate with four horns, further enhanced by the work of the great Zoot Sims andPhil Woods, along with the leader.Eardley, who moved to Europe in 1969, deserved to be better known in hishomeland. His tone was rich and vigorous, his conception always personal andcomfortably within his limits, with a compact, logical and swinging style, amelodic approach and an acute Late Leader (Eardley) 4:58
