Overview

Beatitudes is an album by saxophonist and composer Bobby Watson and double bassist Curtis Lundy. It was recorded on April 11, 1983, at Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, and was released on vinyl later that year by New Note Records. In 1997, the album was reissued on CD by Evidence Music. On the album, which features five Watson originals, a Lundy composition, and Gigi Gryce's "Minority", Watson and Lundy are joined by pianist Mulgrew Miller and drummer Kenny Washington. Reception In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow wrote: "Watson already had a distinctive sound at this early stage and his solos in the advanced hard bop setting are enthusiastic and fairly original." Sid Gribetz of JazzTimes stated: "The music here is crackling and sharp... Watson plays with a deep strong tone and an attack full of verve and bite... Lundy was at that time already a long-term associate of Watson's, and their empathy is evident on the recording... the songs are more than just tunes to blow on-they are lyrical and coherent, lending to fine playing that remains memorable."
