Another gem!

Jazz Alley

From Louis Armstrong to Charlie Parker to the new greats of today, this is the place for Jazz!

Budd Johnson and The Four Brass Giants.

Still available on CD from Amazon:

BJ on tenor sax, with Harry Edison, Clark Terry, Ray Nance and Nat
Adderley doing the brass work (Nance plays violin on 2 cuts), Joe
Benjamin providing some very nasty/tasty bass, Jimmy Jones or Tommy
Flanagan on piano, and Herbie Lovelle on Drums.

This is hot, swinging, modern jazz played with panache, taste and lots
of feeling by a bunch of true pros, who seem to have had a great time
making this date. This is not just a blowing session; the tunes are
obviously arranged, but I don't know by whom. As Cannonball Adderley
was the producer, I suspect he and Budd cooperated on the arranging.

Get this one if you don't already have it. It's a mood lifter.

Lack of skill dictates economy of style. - Joey Ramone
