ZOOT SIMS: In a sentimental Mood (1985)

Subscribe: Another treasure from the Sonet archives: a concert by a highly accomplished and superbly compatible Zoot Sims Trio, recorded in the library of the Sonet headquarters building in Lidingö, Sweden, on November 21st 1984 - just four months before Zoot died, at the age of 60. Happily, the concert was also filmed. Ira Gitler once described the spirit and sensibility expressed by Zoot Sims as “eternal verities” - a phrase which vividly conveys the quintessential honesty of Zoot’s approach to music. This is an absolutely joyous session performed by three outstanding musicians and the enjoyment they derived from playing together informs every not of the music. And there is a bonus in the form of a delightfully light-hearted interview which Red Mitchell has with Zoot Sims. 0:34 In A Sentimental Mood (Duke Ellington) 7:26 Gone With The Wind ( - ) 18:25 Castle Blues (Zoot Sims) 27:58 Sweet Lorraine ( - M.
