This double LP offers listeners a strong introduction to the trumpet playing and arrangements of
Shorty Rogers
, but unfortunately it has gone out of print and was the first and last in its series. The 32 selections feature six different groups headed by
Rogers
during 1953-1954, ranging from an octet to a big band; all of the bands feature sidemen who essentially formed a who's who of West Coast jazz. Among the other soloists are altoist
Art Pepper
; tenors
Bill Holman
,
Bill Perkins
Zoot Sims
Bob Cooper
, and
Jimmy Giuffre
; trumpeter
Harry "Sweets" Edison
; pianist
Hampton Hawes
; and altoists
Herb Geller
and
Bud Shank
. The majority of the selections are
originals; there is music from the
Marlon Brando
film
The Wild One
and a
Count Basie
tribute set. Swinging and surprisingly fiery "cool jazz" that deserves to be reissued on CD in full. ~ Scott Yanow
