Album Notes & Community Reviews

Maintaining a fiercely swinging big band format well into the 1950s, the virtuoso trumpeter leads a highly disciplined orchestra through immensely powerful, brass-heavy arrangements. The soaring, incredibly precise instrumental execution effectively kept the romantic, highly danceable spirit of the Swing Era alive for devoted audiences.
