Maynard swings it surprisingly nicely – in his standard big band mode, but with a lot more of an edge than in later years, thanks no doubt to some of the strong players he had in his group! Maynard's solos still have that blaring quality that marks him as a dominant showman, but he also ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Put aside your reservations about Maynard Ferguson, because this is a very hip little record – one of Maynard's excellent early sessions for Roulette Records, and like the rest, done with a group that's overflowing with top-shelf players!

Funky funky Maynard – and a sweet set of electric big band jazz that's got plenty of nice moments!

Another one of their crazy LPs, which are sometimes hard to find amidst the pop stuff they normally did.

One of the best early albums by Ferrante & Teicher! The record has less of the studio effects of their Westminster albums – but it does feature some killer firey twin piano pyrotechnics, with the same sort of goofy manipulation of the strings and piano innards as on the Soundproof album. ...

The second album recorded by Cuban vocal legend Ibrahim Ferrer in the wake of the Buena Vista Social Club phenomenon – and maybe the best!

A sublime little set – quite possibly the greatest album ever from Brazilian keyboardist Manfredo Fest!
