Fantastic Percussion!

Add to Cart$5.99 ... LP
LP (Item 33169) Liberty, Late 50s -- Condition: Very Good-

Lots of percussion -- and loud! Slatkin's normally a bit sleepy, but this record's filled with drums and chimes and vibes and loads of exotic percussion instruments -- and swings with a groove that's in the best of the Liberty easy styles from the late 50s. Titles include "Night Train", "Caravan", "Blue Tango", "Opus 1", and "The Happy Hobo". The tracks are less originals than they are oddly-worked (or worked-over) versions of more familiar tunes. (Black label stereo pressing. Cover has some seam splitting, with a piece of tape on the bottom seam.)  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
