AND HIS EXTRA-CELESTIALS

MOON SONG

Description:
Trombonist Dan Barrett leads his Extra Celestials on a set of spirited small group swing. The repertoire is full of obscurities including Benny Carter's "Scratch My Back" and Red McKenzie's "Georgianna," "Mound Bayou," and "Mama, That Moon Is Here Again" and a few superior standards. Barrett who also plays cornet, wrote all of the arrangements, and takes a rare vocal is joined throughout by some of his favorite musicians: singer Rebecca Kilgore who is heard on six of the 13 selections, pianist Dave Frishberg, guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli, bassist Joel Forbes, drummer Jeff Hamilton, altoist/flutist Chuck Wilson, tenor saxophonist Brian Oglivie, and Scott Robinson clarinet, bass sax, alto, and tenor. In addition, trumpeter Bryan Shaw helps out on two songs. The intelligent arrangements which make optimal use of the many great musicians on the date and the concise, meaningful solos result in Moon Song being memorable.
