Title: Noteworthy but nonessential
Review: From the former pianist and composer for Dizzy Gillespie comes the first in a series of releases from Lalo Schifrin dubbed "Jazz Meets the Symphony." Accompanied by Ray Brown on bass and Grady Tate on drums, the trio is joined by The London Philharmonic. Cataloged rightly under bebop, this third stream effort has standout moments on tracks like "Dizzy Gillespie Fireworks" or "Echoes of Duke Ellington." Pleasant as these and a few other tracks are, one cannot call them at all essential. Still a nice endeavor to grab up when you see it.
