Steve Allen's Hip Fables is a playful and inventive jazz album featuring the witty narration of Al "Jazzbeaux" Collins and the clever Spanglish translations of Slim Gaillard. Originally a follow-up session to the beloved "Bop Fables," this recording brings together a stellar cast, including the rhythmic flair of Ray Mantilla on Latin percussion. The album's unique blend of storytelling and jazz makes it a delight for listeners of all ages, from jazz enthusiasts to adventurous young ears.
This Modern Harmonic release spotlights four hip fables, each delivered with a beatnik sensibility and creative twists that keep the experience fresh. The whimsical narration paired with inventive linguistic play and lively percussion creates an atmosphere that's as charming as it is distinct—perfect for anyone seeking a standout addition to their jazz or spoken word collection.
