A strangely wonderful Latin set with a very drum-heavy approach! Cuban percussionist Walfredo plays in a large group with Louie Belson on the regular kit and "moog drum" – and the rest of the group features strong Latin players like Francisco Aguabella, Clare Fischer, Emil Richards, and Cachao. Very nice stuff, with a strong groove that you wouldn't expect from the usual Pablo material. Titles include "Ecue", "Salsa In Cinco", "Sentido En Seis", and "Javilla". LP, Vinyl record album
(Early 90s OJC pressing, still sealed with review sticker.)
An album dedicated to composer/arranger – featuring charts by Thad Jones, Bill Holman, and Ernie Wilkins. Tracks include "Summer Love", "With Bells On", "Conte", "Ike, Mike & Spike", and "Berne, Baby, Berne!". CD

Count Basie —
Basie Jam ... LP Pablo, 1975. Very Good Gatefold ...
Out Of Stock
An all-star jam session from Montreux in 1973 – recorded in true Verve style by the great Norman Granz, Count Basie at the head of a group that includes LouieBellson, Ray Brown, JJ Johnson, Harry Edison, Eddie Lockjaw Davis, and Zoot Sims! Tracks are nice lengthy rakes of Basie classics, with plenty of solo space – a bit tighter than a more traditional jam session, probably because the players get along so well together! 5 numbers in all, including "Doubling The Blues", "Hanging Out", "Red Bank Blues", "One-Nighter" and "Freeport Blues". LP, Vinyl record album
Accompanied by the Boston Pops Orchestra conducted by Arthur Fiedler, with LouieBellson on drums and John Lamb on bass, and arrangements by Richard Hayman. LP, Vinyl record album
