ghost of miles Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 Was thinking about this the other day as I worked on The Big Bands... obviously Ellington & Herman come to mind, as well as Basie and Rich (maybe not so obviously for some folks )... what others? For me, Gerald Wilson and the Mulligan Concert Jazz Band... Clarke-Boland... Don Ellis... Fischer... who am I leaving out? Quote

Bill Fenohr Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 Not a working band, but Gil Evans. Quote
Nate Dorward Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 Sonny Criss's album Sonny's Dream is a fine one. Again, not a working band. Quote
Jazz Kat Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 How is the Duke Pearson orchestrated stuff? I didn't care for the Wnyton Kelly one with Jimmy Cobb, Kenny Burrell and Paul Chambers, Comin In The Back Door. I didnt hear a guitar in the whole album BTW. Quote
