Good music, but one of the laziest concepts for an album cover ever devised!

Listening to:

I really loved this CD, both the "live" big band set and the small group studio recordings.  Band included members such as Conte Candoli, Uan Rasey, Jimmy Zito, Bill Perkins, Joe Maini, Gene Estes, Lou Levy and even Red Callender on tuba!  Frank Rosolino plays only on the small group tracks.  Charts by Benny Carter, Shorty Rogers, Marty Paich Bob Florence and George Williams for the big band and by Mr. Paich for the small group.  Music which sounds "of its time", but also still sounds fresh and lively today.  An easily recommended CD for fans of big band jazz or West Coast jazz.

Who was tenor saxophonist Carrington Visor?  I never heard that name before.

Oh, so he was on the Dizzy Gillespie / Gil Fuller Monterey Jazz Festival Orchestra album.  I have that, so I guess I must have seen his name before and not realized it.  Thanks.
