Hub-Tones is Freddie Hubbard sharpening his own voice, recorded for Blue Note in 1962 and released the following year. It is bold, bluesy and brimming with ideas.
In the middle of his stint with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, and already a seasoned Blue Note leader at just 24, Hubbard assembled a quintet with James Spaulding on alto saxophone and flute, Herbie Hancock on piano, Reggie Workman on bass and Clifford Jarvis on drums. Four of the five tunes are his own, and the record shows him growing from hotshot soloist into a composer with a clear identity.
You're My Everything opens with a playful, swinging reading of the standard, Hancock's piano sparkling underneath. Prophet Jennings is moodier, while the title track Hub-Tones races along on a slippery, modal theme that gives everyone room to stretch. Lament for Booker, written for the late trumpeter Booker Little, is the emotional core, a slow, searching piece that shows how much feeling Hubbard could pack into a single held note.
Spaulding's flute adds an airy colour to several passages, and Van Gelder's engineering keeps the whole band vivid and immediate.
Among Hubbard's Blue Note albums, this is one of the most rewarding: confident, adventurous and still deeply rooted in the blues.
