TAB SMITH

JUMP TIME
Description:
Altoist Tab Smith, who first gained recognition with Count Basie's orchestra in the mid '40s, became an unexpected R&B star in the early '50s, thanks in large part to his hit version of "Because of You." Between 1951 1957, Smith recorded 90 songs for the United Record Company, of which only 48 were issued. Delmark, in their CD reissue series, came out with all of the music in chronological order. This first release has the initial 20 including the hit, and Tab Smith sounds fine on the sweet ballads, blues, and concise jump tunes. The backup crew includes trumpeter Sonny Cohn, tenor Leon Washington, and either Lavern Dillon or Teddy Brannon on piano. Includes 5 previously unreleased tracks.
