Worthwhile,

This review is from: Herd at Montreux (Audio CD)
Has some clunkers but mostly great stuff. "Superstar", played flawlessly by Dave Stahl (hi-note trumpeter) is worth the price alone!

Not as hip as Woody may have intended.,
By Fresh Scent (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Herd at Montreux (Audio CD)
I love the OJC reissues of Woody's Fantasy albums from the 70s, but I was truly disappointed with the CD. The recording quality is sketchy and the band sounds uncomfortable playing the rock-oriented material. "Montevideo" is probably the most interesting chart, but that's not saying much when you listen to the other cuts. What saves the album are the contributions of the individual soloists, most notably Greg Herbert and Andy LaVerne.From the pompous octave trumpeting on the first track to the awkward funk of "Crosswind," this album is definitely for Herman completists. Virtually the same band is better featured on the impressive "Thundering Herd" album (which was recorded a few months earlier); it showcases what talent this edition of the Herd truly possessed. Seek out that release instead. |
