5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Most Tastless Albums He Ever Recorded!!!!!, January 17, 2005

By 

Screamplayer (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Birdland Dream Band (Audio CD)

Wow! This is one of the most tastless album recordings Maynard has ever recorded!!!!! Ferguson's Double High "C's" are just EVIL! It sounds like Maynard is going to split the bell of his trumpet in half!! Wow! This album has some of the tastiest arrangements and playing Maynard has ever recorded! HIGHLY RECOMENDED!!!!! This album is second to the MOST tastless song Maynard ever recorded Jerome Kern's "All The Things You Are!" Kenton was even sued by Kern himself for what he called Ferguson's [...]-ization of his song! HA! HA! DIG SOME OF THIS MAN!
