5.0 out of 5 stars Big band with VERVE, January 6, 2007

Annie Van Auken (Planet Earth) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Compact Jazz: Best of the Big Bands (Audio CD)

From the VERVE records archives comes COMPACT JAZZ * BEST OF THE BIG BANDS. Spanning the years 1951 to 1978, the majority of these swinging sides were recorded in the 50s (ten of them, in fact). Sound quality is superb, performances even better and the orchestras-- the very best.

Included are liner notes with complete band personnel, recording dates and running times. This one is pure joy throughout. Highest energy, and my highest recommendation.

TOTAL RUNNING TIME -- 63:21
