Customer Reviews:

Buddy DeFranco's first recordings.......2006-03-06

This Hep CD collects the first 26 sides Buddy DeFranco recorded under his own leadership, mostly for the MGM label. Five of the eight sessions find Buddy fronting a big band filled with some of the best modern players in NYC at the time: Al Cohn, Teddy Charles, Gene Quill, Jimmy Raney, and Bernie Glow, to name just a few. After playing for years in the Tommy Dorsey band, DeFranco wanted to try out new ideas, and these bands were just the ones to attempt them. The arranging is excellent. RUMPUS ROOM and KING PHILLIP STOMP are snappy tunes, very boppish and finely arranged. OUT OF NOWHERE features Buddy's lower-register clarinet on half a chorus before ascending into the upper spheres where he is more accustomed to playing.

The remaining three sessions are quintet/sextet dates, the quintet sides with Kenny Drew (p) and Jimmy Raney (g) from 1952 being the best sides on the CD. Most of them are taken up-tempo, and they really cook, especially GET HAPPY and SWEET GEORGIA BROWN. BUDDY'S BLUES is the only blues on the CD and it's a nice one. LADY BE GOOD features Buddy's clarinet all the way, while Kenny Drew's composition CAIRO is a tune with real sticking power. The sextet date from 1949 was done for Capitol and features Teddy Charles (vibes) (Max Roach is the drummer). Pianist Harvey Leonard's BUD'S INVENTION is a great little tune and it has some wonderful Jimmy Raney guitar work on it. (Raney's name was left off the personnel listing in the booklet.) These early sides of DeFranco's are terrific, and hopefully Hep will issue a second volume completing the run of MGM sides.

Outstanding performances.......1999-06-22

Listen to Anthropology and you will hear outstanding performances by both jazz greats. Other standouts include The Song Is You and Invitation. From top to bottom, this is an excellent example of the artistry of these two artists. The interplay between the artists is brilliant. Highly reccomended for fans of Bebop and Swing oriented Jazz music.

Perfect!.......1998-12-04

Fantastic duo performance. What seems like a odd match at first is really a match made in heaven. These two greats are perfect together!

Absolutely amazing buddy.......2006-09-16

considering that buddy was something like 80 when this album was made, he is still truly fantastic. this album is alot of bop style and thus has a harder feel than maybe his other stuff. i for one think it's so dope. i don't know how any jazz musician could not like this stuff. buddy's clarinet and pizzarelli's guitar together have the coolest sound i think ever heard.

Very good late career DeFranco.......2004-03-10

It's nice to see Buddy DeFranco being recorded at age 80. He has played Jazz Showcase in Chicago the past few summers and I can testify that he's still a brilliant player. This disk will demonstrate that to listeners who haven't heard him recently. Buddy is accompanied by the John Pizzarelli Trio and drummer Butch Miles, which is a mixed bag. Because of his popularity as a vocalist, Pizzarelli sings on "Prisoner of Love" and "What's This Thing Called Love?" These tunes come off sounding fine, though Pizzarelli's vocal appearance detracts a bit from the notion that this is DeFranco's record even if you do get to hear Buddy as accompanist. The addition of Miles on drums gives the session a heavier feel than you're used to hearing on a Pizzarelli record. It would have been nice to hear Buddy play with just the trio on at least a track or two. But these are minor complaints. It's worth celebrating that Buddy gets to headline his own record on a label that has significant distribution. Enjoy!
