Reviews :
"George Russell was one of the most forward-thinking composers and arrangers on the jazz scene during the 1950s, but his work was generally more appreciated by musicians than the jazz-buying public. New York, New York represents one of many high points in his career. He assembled an all-star orchestra, including pianist Bill Evans (a frequent participant on Russell's recordings), Art Farmer, Bob Brookmeyer, John Coltrane, and Milt Hinton, among others. In Rodgers & Hart's "Manhattan," Russell has the soloists playing over the orchestra's vamp, while he also creates an imaginative "East Side Medley" combining the standards "Autumn in New York" and "How About You." His original material is just as striking as his arrangements, while vocalist Jon Hendricks serves as narrator between orchestra segments. " AllMusic Review by Ken Dryden
"The most ambitious of (George) Russell's masterworks is New York, N.Y.. which was recorded in the fall of 1958 and released on Decca in 1959 — the same year as Miles' Kind of Blue and Trane's Giant Steps. So it is good to see it come back to life in this gorgeous gatefold-packaged reissue, mastered from the original analog tapes, and pressed on 180-gram QRP vinyl as part of Universal Music's joint venture with Chad Kassem's Acoustic Sounds. ... New York, N.Y. is a big band record — 13 topnotch musicians traversing Russell's scores, which are unlike any jazz orchestral scores of the time. ... The tapes were otherwise fine to begin with, the mastering by Ryan Smith of Sterling Sound is probably as good as possible — this LP sounds much better than previous reissues — and the music overwhelms any flaws." — Revinylization, Fred Kaplan, Stereophile, April 2021.
