Tadd Dameron displays his big band writing ability,
By

This review is from: Magic Touch (Audio CD)
Tadd Dameron was one of the heroes of the be bop era. He was a great composer and arranger and a rather average pianist. He made this recording in 1962 and assembled some outstanding musicians. I am not aware of any other examples of Philly Joe Jones anchoring a big band but he does it quite well. There are many other stars here including Clark Terry, Jimmy Cleveland, Johnny Griffin, Bill Evans and Ron Carter. Many of the Tadd Dameron classics are here but my one complaint is that often the numbers are too short. The great soloists should have been given more room to blow. This is a very good CD that could have been a classic.
