JSngry Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 http://www.dustygroove.com/jazzcd4.htm#359469 Buddy's in Miami -- but that doesn't mean he's on vacation -- as the set's a hard burner that ranks as one of his best sides for Verve of the 50s! The set was recorded live at the Dream Bar at the Johnina Hotel in Miami -- and Buddy's leading an interesting groove that includes Verve wailer Flip Phillips on tenor sax, plus the much more understated Peter Ind on bass and Ronnie Ball on piano. The combination of players in the quartet makes for a very interesting sound -- as at some points it seems as if Phillips and Rich are taking off entirely on their own -- making for a tenor/drum groove that's mighty nice! Tracks include "Lover Come Back To Me", "Topsy", "Undecided", "Broadway", and "Jumpin At The Woodside". Buddy Rich, Flip Phillips, Ronnie Ball, and... Peter Ind? What would Lennie say? Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 Warne was in one of Buddy's bands in the late '40s. Quote
John Tapscott Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 Buddy Rich, Flip Phillips, Ronnie Ball, and... Peter Ind? What would Lennie say? Lennie had a hard time understanding that people in his "school" had to make a living. Quote
JSngry Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Posted October 19, 2004 Warne was in one of Buddy's bands in the late '40s. Yeah, I had forgot about that. The "question" was meant as a joke, pretty much. The "image" of Peter Ind playing w/these guys on this kind of a date makes me chuckle, that's all. No doubt at all that he could handle the gig just fine, or that he might have even enjoyed himself. Quote
