Consummation Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra SKU: BST84346 Barcode: 5060149621486 34.00 £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure Released Date: 22nd February 2012 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Of the many albums recorded by the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, this was the greatest. This set introduced Jones’ best-known composition, “A Child Is Born”, and also has a colourful rendition of his sly “Tiptoe”, and finds the big band ripping the roof off during the lengthy and very exciting “Fingers”. The all-star cast (which includes flugelhornist Jones, drummer Lewis, trumpeter Marvin Stamm, trombonist Jimmy Knepper, tenor great Billy Harper, the reeds of Jerome Richardson, Jerry Dodgion and Eddie Daniels, keyboardist Roland Hanna, and bassist Richard Davis, among others) is well served by Thad Jones’ inventive and swinging arrangements. A classic. Musicians: Thad Jones, trumpet, flugelhorn Billy Harper, tenor saxophone, flute Jimmy Knepper, trombone Jerome Richardson, alto saxophone, soprano saxophone, flute Joe Farrell, baritone saxophone, clarinet Roland Hanna, electric piano, piano David Spinozza, guitar Mel Lewis, drums Recording: January and May 1970 at A&R Studios, New York City, by Don Hahn Artist Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra Genre Jazz Label Pure Pleasure Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Selections: 1.
