mikeweil Posted August 3, 2018 Report Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Knew Big Miller from his participation in Jon Hendricks' "Evolution of the Blues Song", and had always liked his singing, but only now got around to buy me a copy of this. Excellent sidemen, incl. arrangers Budd Johnson and Jimmy Jones on the first album, fantastic sound on the second (never heard Ike Isaacs' bass sound so well). He kind of hits a middle between Eckstine and Witherspoon. This will remain in rotation for some time here. Edited August 3, 2018 by mikeweil Quote
duaneiac Posted August 3, 2018 Report Posted August 3, 2018 I've been listening to just some of the music recorded at the soon to be shuttered Fantasy Studios -- Quote

What are your impressions of it? Re Christian McBride Big Band - it's a good one, not a greatly profound big band album perhaps, but good solid arrangements, good playing, good band, fine recording. I like it. Edited August 3, 2018 by John Tapscott Quote

erwbol Posted August 3, 2018 Report Posted August 3, 2018 Idris Muhammad's other CTI/Kudu albums are not to my liking, but this one is excellent. Quote
