JSngry Posted January 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 54 minutes ago, John Tapscott said: Not sure what your point is, Jim, but I really like this session. You're right, it should have been reissued. And Romano's playing with Woody Herman was really good, too. Romano also had his own more recent session, a good quintet session (with Joe Magnarelli I think), from the 90's perhaps, which I had as a digital download, but lost in a computer crash. Now: My point is just that I had never heard it before. Now I have. And that's about it. It's a good revord, neither Moto nor Romano were exactly... overexposed, so mission acomplished there. But will I ever listen to it again? Probably not? One, done, had my fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love all the Terry Gibbs big band "Live" stuff I have heard. I actually feel kinda guilty about listening to this band without the necessary accompaniment of a thick well-done steak, a highball and lots of cigar/cigarette smoke because that's the setting for which this music was designed, Just listening to this music, I half expect to see Joey Bishop or Marty Milner seated at a nearby table. This is the type of band for whom "Too Close For Comfort" was a big showstopper, so this is not music for Maria Schneider acolytes. Great arrangements, although some might dismiss them as "clever", and a band of musicians who combine to create a powerful, swinging musical machine. Mel Lewis keeps the band's engines well stoked.
