Strange, so much as I liked "Back to the Track", I didn´t find much stuff for me on the "Waitin´ game". 
Somehow like I don´t like the before unissued album they made with Freddie Redd. I love his compositions, his playing and his choice of musicians so much and was so disappointed by I think it´s titled "Redd´s Blues", with an obscure drummer, who doesn´t fit in, and the ensemble playing and the horn solos are also a mess.....

Well Wilbur Ware and Philly Joe are a strong rhythm section and Johnny Coles isnt that bad either. Here we seem to disagree

I remember that Johnny Coles is on it, but as much as I like Johnny Coles own album for BN,  I think I remember I didn´t likee it so much on that Tina Brooks album. And maybe I had my things with never before issued contemporanous CDs under the BN label name. 
Like I don´t really like Jackie McLeans Tippin´ the Scales, and prefer the more far out goin albums he did at that time.
Or Lee Morgan´s "Rajah" somehow is not up to what I used to hear from Lee Morgan, 

Let´s say, maybe because BN made too many records and then also issued originally rejected material. 
I like one good album, no alternative tracks and so, just the music that was recorded and put out then....

But it´s mostly possible I have this listening habit, since I don´t have much time left to listen once a while to a record, that means I mostly listen to what is a regular album or even better a live recording...

I particularly like the way Holman arranged the version of "If You Could See me Now"

😁 👍 ❤️

I do like this one too that is  nearly everything from Boll & his big band + many arrangememnts for other groups. He brought even Stans band to swing like mad.

Throughout Europe he directed many radio bigbands of the different countries as from Switzerland, Germany (WDR big band / radio Frankfurt big band/ radio Hamburg big band)  and also in the Netherlands. A real giant he was.
