THE ALAN FREED ROCK 'N' ROLL SHOW
Description:
24 tracks of 1950's big bland blastin'! The Big Band that Alan Freed lent his name to in the mid 50s was one of the hardest rocking outfits of its era, boasting the cream of New York's R&B session musicians in its lineup and featuring such stellar tenor saxophonists as Sam "The Man" Taylor, "Big" Al Sears, Freddie Mitchell and "King Curtis" Ousley taking some of the fieriest solos ever committed to tape. Freed's band could be heard on four albums that were issued between 1956 and 1958 one recorded under the name of the King's Henchmen. Ace's "A Stompin' Good Time" features the King's Henchmen albums in their entirety, along with the Alan Freed Big Band tracks from the two various artists albums.
