HAL McKUSICK

PLAYS... BETTY ST. CLAIRE SINGS

Description:
In planning the arrangements for this album Billy Byers' first consideration was good taste. Each arrangement is styled and colored with the lyrics of the song in mind...each one written as it would be for symphony orchestra with guitar parts suggesting the missing instruments. This is Jazz in good taste...done with good technique. This is not only the music of today. This is a musical panorama...the jazz scene from the beginning. Betty St. Claire's unusual sound and style is heard on records for the first time. Hal ranks today as one of the great instrumentalists of our time. He is equaly at home with clarinet, flute, piccolo, tenor, alto and soprano.
