合計収録時間 : 00:35:42
Personnel: Lester Young , Stan Getz (tenor saxophone); Erroll Garner (keyboards); Terry Gibbs (vibraphone). Recording information: 02/10/1939-11/20/1948. Unknown Contributor Roles: Chick Webb; Count Basie; Dizzy Gillespie; Ella Fitzgerald; Frank Sinatra; Harry James; Nat King Cole; Anita O'Day; Terry Gibbs; Woody Herman; Benny Carter ; Buddy Rich; Charlie Parker . This sampler of swing- and bop-era performances is a bit pointless, because all of the recordings (the majority of which are live) are already available elsewhere, generally on other budget Drive Archive CDs. There is a song apiece featuring Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald with Chick Webb's Orchestra ("T'ain't What You Do"), Stan Getz (his 1946 rendition of "Don't Worry 'Bout Me"), Lester Young, Dizzy Gillespie & Charlie Parker ("Groovin' High"), Errol Garner, Frank Sinatra with the Harry James Orchestra, Anita O'Day singing "How High the Moon" with the Count Basie Orchestra in 1948, Benny Carter, Terry Gibbs with Woody Herman's Second Herd and the Buddy Rich Big Band. The music is generally worthwhile, but only absolute beginners and the most casual listeners will want to pick up these performances in this format. ~ Scott Yanow
