MEL TORME / MARTY PAICH

MARTY PAICH DEK-TETTE

THE 1956 TORME-PAICH LEGENDARY SESSIONS

Description:
Mel Torme Vocals. Fascinated by the sound of the original Gerry Mulligan Ten tette on Capitol, Mel Torme had always felt that these same patterns, reworked for the proper vocalist, could blend voice and instrument to the mutual satisfaction of both. In 1956, this idea became a reality. The task of selecting musicians who could produce this sound was given to the versatile pianist arranger Marty Paich who, in fact, co featured with Mel on these recordings. The voice of Mel, Marty Paich's arrangements and his Dek Tette all blend to produce an outstanding jazz oriented sound and feeling. Although five decades have passed, these masterpieces remain universally acknowledged as a milestone in the history of vocal jazz.
