High Blues Pressure is a 1968 album by American jazz musician Freddie Hubbard. Originally released by Atlantic, this was remastered by Gene Paul and reissued in 1999 by Koch Jazz, released as an HDCD.
Freddie Hubbard may be the quintessential hard bop/modern jazz trumpet player. 'High Blues Pressure' was recorded in 1967-68 for Atlantic Records, but style-wise it might well be a Blue Note session–and a very fine one at that. Hubbard's tone is big, brash, fiery and blues-inflected. The wailing solos by Bennie Maupin and the under-rated James Spaulding match the intensity of the fire that Hubbard generates. The program consists of very melodic, earthy hard-bop originals, with touches of "Sidewinder"-like funk (Weldon Irvine's "Can't Let Her Go") and just-south-of-the-border pop-Latin music ("Latina"). The title song is so catchy with its easy, loping groove one wonders why it wasn't a hit single. Unlike some jazz albums from this period, 'Pressure' features great ensemble playing to go with the excellent solos–no tiresome "theme/solos/theme" or "me soloist, you back-up" stuff. This disc comes highly recommended to Acid jazz fans, die-hard Blue Note bop buffs, acoustic jazz newcomers and Hubbard fans alike.
