Editorial Reviews

2006 two-on-one CD features the first two albums Manny Albam recorded under his own name. Many outstanding figures participated on the sessions including Joe Newman, Thad Jones, Conte Candoli, Bob Brookmeyer, Al Cohn, Milt Hinton, Urbie Green, Jimmy Cleveland, Hank Jones, Freddie Green, Eddie Costa and Osie Johnson. Albam’s recording career spanned seven decades, beginning in 1944 (on his first sessions he was more of a baritone sax player than an arranger) and ending in 1999. 18 tracks total. Lonehill Jazz.
