About This Song
About "Constance aux Enfers: Hard Bop Tune (1964)" by Claude Bolling
Hard bop with a cinematic edge: stabbing horns, a walking bass that won't quit, and drums that crackle like gunfire. Bolling channels the grit of 1960s crime scenes, but the sheer joy of the playing undercuts the danger. Hell, it seems, has a killer rhythm section.
