The first 26 selections that xylophonist
Red Norvo
ever led are on this essential (and generous) CD. Among the many illustrious sidemen are future bandleaders
Benny Goodman
(heard on bass clarinet during memorable versions of
"In a Mist"
and
"Dance of the Octopus"
),
Jimmy Dorsey
,
Artie Shaw
Jack Jenney
Charlie Barnet
, and
Bunny Berigan
in addition to
Chu Berry
Teddy Wilson
Gene Krupa
. While the first half of the program features all-star groups, the later tracks are prime examples of small-group
swing
with arranger
Eddie Sauter
's mellophone,
Stew Pletcher
's trumpet, and
Herbie Haymer
's tenor playing key roles. This readily available CD from the Scottish label
Hep
contains more than its share of classic performances, and is essential. ~ Scott Yanow
