mjazzg Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 16 minutes ago, HutchFan said: Give it a listen. It's very good -- at times excellent -- but not a typical jazz record. I understand that Trovaioli was primarily a film composer (although Rugantino was a live show), and you can tell. I imagine that anyone who enjoys Pieranunzi's take on Morricone's or Fellini's music would like it. (I do.) But this is a shade more arranged than those albums. Cued up on Tidal now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the tunes are old war-horses, but Grappelli & Disley play the hell out of them. Plus, it features QHCF-like instrumentation: one violin, two guitars (one lead, one rhythm), and a bass.

Best I’ve ever had. . . wish I hadn’t had to spend the money. Congratulations! Sadly, I'm having to seriously consider updating my 13 year old machine by buying a Mac Studio after the new OS is introduced this October. I love what I have so much that an alternative is to raise my OS from El Capitan to Sonoma (or at least, Ventura) using an OpenCore Legacy Patcher instead of getting a new computer. I dread the change, but it's becoming a needed thing lately. Edited August 16, 2023 by rostasi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 The album/CD reissue that hooked me on Jackie Mac, way back when I was a wee jazz lad in the mid-1990s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted August 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Airshots of some really good bands here, with really good books that lean into bop more often than not. Also, some really good, occasionally extended Prestastic solos by Allen Eager. As well, a few brief but unmistakeable contributions from Warne Marsh. And Buddy is always swinging (sic). He sings here and there, and dies not suck. Models here are Basie and Herman. People with an interest in Post WWII big bands navigating the dance/bop waters would be well-advised to check out these recordings! If you only want one, get the first one. The second one fleshes things out, but is not the near-essential document that the first one is. Again, some really good bands here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
