4.0 out of 5 stars Smokin' set, February 22, 2002

kevnm "kevnm" (Costa Mesa, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)

This review is from: The Lionel Hampton Quintet (Audio CD)

This is such a blast - the lead track, "flyin' home" is a ferociously swinging workout with some really empathetic jamming.
There's plenty of "pretty" vibes work here, but no mush. A very musical, very entertaining, very hip 50s jazz recording.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Flyin', September 16, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Lionel Hampton Quintet (Audio CD)

The first number on the CD, by itself, is worth the price. You have five all-time great jazz artists improvising for over 17 minutes on "Flying Home", a Lionel Hampton and Benny Goodman composition -- I dare you to try not to smile.

5.0 out of 5 stars this music makes you smile and dance, February 21, 2003

"kornelio" (Budapest, Hungary) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Lionel Hampton Quintet (Audio CD)

This is an all star session, and a very succesful one. What we hear is highly inspired, swinging, timeless jazz. Vibes and clarinet together sound unconventional, elegant and really entertaining. I highly recommend this CD.

I saw Mr. Hampton back in 1975.And remember how impressed was with his performance. Years later i heard his take on Sunnyside Of The Street, and was blown away. Read more
