ARRANGED AND CONDUCTED BY ERNIE WILKINS

TOP BRASS AND TRUMPETS ALL OUT

Description:
Top Brass was a 1956 stellar 5 star in Down Beat album in a modern and expanded reincarnation of many of the Keynote sessions in the ‘40s when a pride of several lions on one particular instrument was assembled to exchange ideas and styles. In this case, Savoy presented five trumpeters Ernie Royal, Idrees Sulieman, Joe Wilder, Ray Copeland, and Donald Byrd blowing score and solo in various Ernie Wilkins settings flawlessly backed by the famous trio made up by Hank Jones, Wendell Marshall, and Kenny Clarke. The success of this first, experimental, date allowed Savoy’s producer Ozzie Cadena to do a repeat session utilizing five different trumpet players Art Farmer, Emmett Berry, Charlie Shavers, and Harold Baker and a rhythm section with two changes: pianist Don Abney, and drummer Bobby Donaldson. The end result was Trumpets All Out, another excellent date with essentially mood setters. The lines are sprightly and Ernie, who arranged all, is his usual spare, swinging, estimable self.
