Personnel: Bud Shank (alto saxophone, baritone saxophone); Bob Enevoldsen (tenor saxophone, valve trombone); Bob Cooper (tenor saxophone); Bob Gordon (baritone saxophone); Stu Williamson (trumpet, valve trombone); Claude Williamson (piano); Stan Levey (drums). Recording information: Los Angeles, CA (08/17/1954-03/12/1957). Unknown Contributor Roles: Dick Shreve; Lennie Niehaus; Pepper Adams. The nine selections on this CD reissue (nearly all the Lighthouse All-Stars' Contemporary recordings are now available in the OJC series) each extensively feature one or two top West Coast jazz players. Bassist Howard Rumsey's group was expanded to an octet, and showcased are trombonist Frank Rosolino ("Funny Frank"), tenor saxophonist Richie Kamuca, trumpeter Conte Candoli, drummer Stan Levey, Bob Cooper on tenor, trumpeter Stu Williamson, valve trombonist Bob Enevoldsen, pianist Claude Williamson, bassist Rumsey (on "Concerto for Doghouse"), and altoist Bud Shank. With the exception of the Rumsey feature (composed by Stan Kenton), all of the music was new, with the arrangements provided by pianist Dick Shreve, Bill Holman, Cooper, and Williamson. An excellent set. ~ Scott Yanow
