Product DetailSonic GradeTrack Listing Side two is lively and punchy with excellent transparency. It's open and transparent with very good brass sound, though it doesn't quite reach the level the side one gets to. Still, it was significantly better than most of the side twos we played and we rated it A+ to A++. The vinyl can be a bit noisy at times, about Mint Minus Minus overall, ticky and crackly at times. There are five pops behind the intro to the second song on side one. Pretty much par for...

When Billy Strayhorn died of cancer in 1967, Duke Ellington was devastated. His closest friend and arranger had left his life full of music and memories. As a tribute, Ellington and his orchestra almost immediately began recording a tribute to Strayhorn, using the late arranger's own compositions and charts. The album features well-known and previously unrecorded Strayhorn tunes that showcased his range, versatility, and, above all, the quality that Ellington admired him most for: his sensitivity...

Releases such as this Jazz Hour CD compilation can drive a Duke Ellington collector nuts. Generic liner notes fail to identify the source of these recordings, though Tom Lord's -The Jazz Discography indicates that many, if not all, of the selections were taped in the 1960s during various rehearsal sessions in the studio, and one or more concerts. The brash and bluesy "Taffy Twist" showcases a brief trumpet solo (possibly Cat Anderson) and a long, gritty tenor sax solo, likely by Jimmy Hamilton rather...
