1962 · Hub-Tones
Freddie Hubbard, the lyrical hard-bop trumpeter of Hub-Tones, also turns up on Ascension, the 1965 wall-of-sound free-jazz session. The tidy melodist standing inside the most extreme date of the era is the surprise.
1970 · Straight Life
The bass intro that defines Freddie Hubbard's Red Clay (1970) wasn't Hubbard's — bassist Ron Carter invented it on the spot because Freddie never brought the part. "Luckily, the right note hit at the right time," Carter said. The hook that became the song's signature was an improvisation forced by a missing chart.
