Is this a similar project like "The Golden Number", which also had duos with various Artists ?

It's all part of a whole, yes.

My favourite Randy Weston album - grab a drink and let yourself get carried away .....

 

Now playing:

... in its Phoenix CD reincarnation. One of the best albums of a jazz soloist with strings I have heard. Byrd plays magnificently, Fischer's arrangements are superb. It's a shame Warner Brothers kept this on the shelf after it was recorded.

Not top-drawer Chet IMO.

Agreed.

I might need to go back and revisit this one, but I recall a rather extreme intonation issue on Byrd's part? Not just occasionally, but nonstop? I could never understand how that happened, either. Byrd in those days was generally a dead-on (or really close to it) guy with his pitch.

Disc 2: This set is going to eventually spin me off into listening to the Roy Eldridge and Lionel Hampton Mosaics, the latter of which I've neglected for maybe 5 years.
