Toshiko Akiyoshi - The Many Sides Of Toshiko (1957) [Japanese Edition 1999]

Talented jazz pianist, but best known for her wizardry as a composer/arranger of big band music since the 1950s.
Having mastered the art of blistering speed and dynamic and then the opposing art of tonal sophistication and phrasing, by 1957 Toshiko set out to combine the approaches, making the album title more than just a random marketing move. The Many Sides of Toshiko, indeed. It might even make the best all-around introduction to her work provided you can find a copy.
The Gershwin classic ‘The Man I Love’ starts the album with a return to the swoonworthy romantic piano of ‘Laura’ off the first album - a captivating choice for the leadoff track and bookended by the choice of ‘Imagination’ for the final number. After the rather spartan feel of The Toshiko Trio, there’s a real infusion of colour and energy this time that gives the album a fuller sound even though she’s still heading a trio. This time, with Jake Hanna on drums and Gene Cherico on bass, neither of whom had any special star power in the jazz world but who clearly gelled with her sound - and Cherico remained a semi-permanent fixture, recording with her right up to the 80s.
There’s a balanced mix of moods to The Many Sides. ‘After You’ve Gone’ (a song that was a number one hit in 1919!) is given a loose, playful reading that undercuts the pathos quite mischieviously right to the very end. Going by sound, ‘Toshiko’s Fantasy’ is of a swinging arcadia where no one gets too worked up but they know the importance of the groove. The nine minutes of ‘We’ll Be Together Again’ start in sunny optimism with Hanna supplying an endless series of drum flourishes; Toshiko then smoothly deepens the tone and the drumming disappears, Cherico stepping into the gap with a hypnotic bass riff over which Toshiko moodily creates an atmosphere of shadows. When Hanna kicks back in and energy returns it’s almost a pity.
