Liner Note Authors: Mark Gardner ; Abbie Gardner. Recording information: Chester, PA (06/14/1957). Photographer: Bengt H. Malmqvist. Arranger: Melba Liston. Although not quite up to the exciting level of their Newport Jazz Festival appearance of a month later, this live CD of the Dizzy Gillespie big band gives one a strong set from the legendary orchestra. In addition to the leader/trumpeter, such soloists as Lee Morgan (who takes the opening trumpet solo on "Night in Tunisia"), altoist Ernie Henry, trombonist Al Grey and Benny Golson on tenor make strong impressions. "Jordu," "I Remember Clifford," a blazing "Cool Breeze" and a humorous "Doodlin'" are among the highlights. ~ Scott Yanow
