CD Reviews

Long on Shorty

William Faust | Columbus, Ohio | 07/30/2000

(4 out of 5 stars)

"If you like Shorty Rogers, and like what he was doing in the 50's to blend his big band swing background (Woody Herman) with the laid back west coast sounds that were coming out of groups like the Mulligan/Baker quartet, here's some more. This is a good collection of early Shorty collaborations including some original compositions, blues and standards. While the personnel is varied, Shorty always played with the best and this collection includes a roster of first-rate sidemen including Harry "Sweets" Edison. Highly recommended but not Shorty's best (see "Courts the Count")."
