CD Reviews

Excellent Hampton Overview...Small Groups and Big Band!

C. Fischer | Bloomington, IN United States | 10/12/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Proper boxes in general represent fantastic value, considering both the depth of subject material, decent re-mastered sound, and and the provision of a detailed booklet with background information as well as discographies. The Lionel Hampton set covers the mid 30's with small groups to the early 50's with his big band ensembles and showcases Hamp, not only on the vibes, but also on the piano and drums. Because of the high quality of the other soloists as well, this set is essential for every lover of swing."
