Frank Sinatra
 One of the best live Sinatra albums, 2001-08-04
This is one of the best official releases of Sinatra live - it captures him at his best and the Red Norvo arrangements are excellent. This album and "Sinatra and sextet live in Paris" are both excellent live albums, personally I prefer them both to the more popular "Sinatra at the Sands." Recommended

 Golden men swing hard, 2008-05-29
This CD is a great joy for a swing and a mainstream fan such as myself...
From Al Grey's rumbunctious trombone to Hamp's hot mallets and sensitive ballad playing, from Terry's ebulent blowing (he was still at or near his prime) to "Sweets" Edison's slightly damaged musical economy of expression...
With great rhythm section (featuring good old Milt Hinton on bas, Hank Jones on piano and "the baby of the band" Grady Tate on drums), with more than solid sax work from Buddy Tate and more modern soloist James Moody (he was still in his prime), this CD couldn't have gone wrong.
Granted, some of the stars have seen better days, and that's the only reason why only four stars for a cd that gives me such great listening pleasure. Playing swing and be-bop repertoire (including Moody's hillarious vocal take on interpretation of his own solo - "I'm in the nood for love" - complete with yodeling at the end), these golden men create the feeling of a genuine jazz festival, with plenty of great and spontanious interplay - check out the last and so often played Hamp's "Boogie Woogie", but also "Flyin' Home" and "Lover"...
If you like this CD, check out the following (but don't be surprised if some of the musicians, particularly Edison, use same phrases on different versions of the same song....):"Live at the Iridium" "Centerpiece -- Live at the Blue Note"
For some magnificent mature Clark Terry see this beautiful duo album "To Duke and Basie"

Easy going jazz performances in extended jam sessions., 2001-06-27
Recorded 1955, in Paris, this CD and the companion volume one are unusual in that they feature long tracks (up to fourteen minutes)which allow the musician's to improvise and develop their solos. Hampton's playing is suburb and he seems to inspire the French modern jazz players, shouting encouragement in the background on some tracks. One reason I love these two CDs is the rhythm section, the guitar, bass and drums never intrude but support the players, Sacha Distel on guitar provides some beautiful solos as does Rene Urtreger on piano. 'I Cover The Waterfront' (fourteen minutes)medium slow tempo and 'Red Ribbon' (nine minutes)brisk medium tempo are a celebration of the essence of jazz, relaxed and swinging. This is jazz that you don't want to end,I bought the original LPs in the early sixties and played them into the ground, thank goodness they have been re-issued.
