I just read this post . Herb Wise (trombone )is my dad and he is still alive and kicking and practicing daily . I remember when he recordd this and know every note of this record. I would love a copy of the CD'd version. Dad has the original (Not for sale version) and is a part of the Wise collection . Thank You for the 2005 post ... Cindy Wise VanHorn

Hi just thought I would tell you that my dad trombone player Herb Wise was the lead player on Debut in Blues with Gene Shaw. Herb is 77, still kickn and looking great. I also thought you would like a MYSTERY list of musicians on a great album that Roulette decided to omit the musician list in favor of Sarah Vaughn and Lalo Schfrin. The album is SWEET AND SASSY: The list is as follows Trumpets: John Howell, George Bean, Warren Kime. Trombones: Herb Wise, Paul Crumbaugh, Bill Corte. Reeds: Kenny Soderblom, Mike Simpson, Art Laurer, Andy Moss. Piano: Ken Harrity. Drums: Bob Cousins. Base : Mel Davis. This was a 12 tune 4 hour session and truly Sarah Vaughn's best work bar none. This was balls to the wall , hair blowing work of genius..... Gotta have it and crank it up. Cindy VH. Ps. It was recorded in Chicago and used the Chicago Symphony strings..... Thank you for reading.

Hi I am Herb Wises daughter . My dad was the trombone player on Gene Shaws's Debut in Blues album . That record was recorded in the early 1960's and is still a crisp piece of work today. I am glad so many of you like this record. I was 5 at the time and remember the session musicians eating barbeque and playing the album over and over in the living room . I know this one by heart. . Ps. Herb Wise is 77 doing just great and looking it too. He and my mom Barbara Wise ( Skitch Hendersons) tour singer in Chicago live on a mountain top in beautiful Pennsylvania. I am always greeted , when visiting, to hair blowin, ear piercing, great music as I pull up echoing off the property. Love it
