CD Reviews

Big Band Hawkins
rick from Boston | 03/26/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"These are just about the only recordings of the short lived Hawkins big band. Taken from various radio broadcasts in 1940, they show a solid band with some good soloists including Joe Guy on trumpet. The sound is prety good for radio recordings.The band never took off and lasted less than a year. Hawkins went back to small bands and rarely played with a big band again."
