5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!
This is a wonderful CD. However, I was disappointed by the decision to cut some of the tunes from the original double LP. Three of those tunes (She's Gone, Fanfare for the Common Man, and Blues in the Night) were among my favorites.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the price yet
The best chart by far on the original record of this concert was Alan Broadbent's treatment of Blues in the Night, which featured many different genres of music masterfully juxtaposed. Some real ear candy, with great lead trumpet work by Allen Vizzutti and solos trumpet by Dennis Dotson. Why is this missing? What were the producers of this CD thinking...

Plus, no CD in the world is worth $49 (not including shipping)...

Please re-release the entire album for real.

3.0 out of 5 stars Why the Edit, January 29, 2008
This review is from: 40th Anniversary Carnegie Hall Concert (Audio CD)
I learned about Woody Herman in high school when I discovered the new young "herd". This LP was my first exposure as a young student of jazz to the great musicians who made up the early herds, such as Getz, Zoot, Don Lamond, Phil Wilson, etc. This is a fun session to be sure with great peformances by Getz on Early Autumn, Phil Wilson on Bijou, and the Four Brothers, Getz, Sims, Guiffre and Flip Phillips. One of the cool things about this session was to hear some great numbers by the young herd at the close of the set which have inexplicably been omitted on the CD.Still a great collection, but disappointingly incomplete.
