Title: Awesome Recording and Music
Review: I love big band music. Especially with a tight horn section. And it is hard to find big bands that have trumpet players talented enough to play the ultrasonic high notes. Probably the king of those notes was the late Maynard Ferguson, God rest his soul. He had players like himself that could pull it off flawlessly. So, too, this album has the rareified air of talent that can pull of those incredibly high trumpet notes with a full orchestra playing at the same time. Priceless. Every song on this album is the kind of music I can listen to over and over again. There are two songs with Sammy Davis, Jr. singing, and although I was not a fan of his prior to buying this album, his singing here is excellent, and I likely will start to shop for some of his music as well. Pick up this album if you love the band sounds of the 50's and 60's. You won't be sorry.
