Drummer Man

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
LP (Item 43291) Verve, 1956 — Condition: Used

Kind of a reprise of earlier days – one that reunites Krupa with Anita O'Day and Roy Eldridge, as the group runs through some material from earlier years. Arrangements are by Quincy Jones, Billy Byers, and Nat Pierce – and the set actually swings more cleanly than some of Krupa's material from the 40s. Titles include "Drummin Man", "Drum Boogie", "Slow Down", "Wire Brush Stomp", "That's What You Think", "Rockin Chair", and "Opus 1". (Black label Verve Inc pressing, with deep groove. Cover has some wear, some peeling on the front, splitting on the seam, and two ink stamps on the back.)  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
