ART BLAKEYAND GIANTS OF JAZZ
LIVE AT THE MONTEREY JAZZ FESTIVAL 1972 |  |
Description:
The Giants of Jazz was the greatest touring jam session since the heyday of Jazz at the Philharmonic. For the year or so of the band's existence, it brought together six of the most important musicians of the post World War II era. Each of the players was a central figure in jazz, all but one the leader of an important group. They agreed to be, for a time, an entity that was the living definition of the term all star band... The repertoire of the Giants of Jazz in this collection is made up of bop classics and superior standards, an alternation of exciting swing with lovely balladry. |
